Two FFs in a month? Three FFs all season? A million other games? New hardware?
Too much....
This holiday will be even more packed than 04.

It's strange that Nintendo publishes the FF Advance games while Square will publish any other FF game... even on another handheld Nintendo system... Did Nintendo bankroll the Advance series, or something?

It's also November 6. But that should be fixed by now.Shard said:
Anyway, when was this game scheduled for November 1?

Yay! My DS has been starving for a new meal for too long (It can only live off Ouendan for so long).

If that's true, then why are you celebrating a delay?typhonsentra said:Yay! My DS has been starving for a new meal for too long (It can only live off Ouendan for so long).

I hope FFIII doesn't get overshadowed by FFXII/PS3/Wii/a load of other stuff...
Okay, that's just retarded. FFXII is going to steamroll the other two, ESPECIALLY FF V. Seriously, who's going to buy that when FFXII just came out and there's a brand new shiny FF remake on DS? God. FF3's date was bad enough, but FFV either needs to get pushed up or pushed back.

Man, what a terrible move. It's going to get steamrolled by FF V Advance and (especially) FF XII The time to release this would have been BEFORE the big guns... with FF XII out, who's going to be talking about this?
The time to release this would have been BEFORE the big guns... with FF XII out, who's going to be talking about this?For GBA, Square Enix prefers to work with other publishers for manufacturing and distribution outside Japan, probably due to higher costs and riskier inventory. That's why Nintendo published the FF ports, FFTA and Sword of Mana while BVG published Kingdom Hearts COM.BocoDragon said:
Obviously this wouldn't be as much of a concern with DS or PSP.

Well, it's the same game, but it's more an enhanced port than a remake. There'll be a new dungeon or two and probably some new abilities, but otherwise it's a straight port.

Terrible timing......I was really looking forward to this, but I'm definately holding off until sometime next year. I'll just be way too deep into GoW and SC: DA MP.

Steamrolled by FFXII, yeah. But I figure that FFIII will steamroll over FFV. Either way S-E is cannibalizing their own sales, late September would have probably been the best release date for FFIII.
For the public FFXII>FFII>FFV
For me FFIII>FFV>FFXII

I'm on the same boat as everyone else who thinks that this is going to kill sales.
