Cellphone game to Arcade title? Weird. I'm totally for it if this gets it some form of US release though.

 

[AniHawk]

*Square just shot themselves in the foot quote*

*unless it's banned*

*in that case, insert random Simpsons quote here*

 

[Mejilan]

Interesting. Been awaiting word for months. Might this be what we've been waiting for?

 

[Bebpo]

Would have to be XBLA. There's no way SE would do a full modern 3d FF based on a cellphone game due to costs alone.

But XBLA is cool since most of us do not have Japanese cellphones. Plus achievements woot.

 

[Troidal]

THAT WOULD BE JAWESOME.

But it doesnt make sense. Normally you'd see it go to DS...

 

[Drkirby]

Eh, I can't see it only on the 360. If its on the 360, its coming for everything.

But who knows other then them, SE can do what they want, how they want.

 

[RevenantKioku]

The important question. Would the Japanese versions be released? I just cancelled my Docomo phone but I really wanted to keep playing it.
*regrets the iPhone*

 

[Aeana]

Very weird. I've heard rumblings of FF4 The After heading to a console, but it wasn't 360.

 

[john tv]

rawk.

 

[Red]

That would be pretty cool. Was The After actually good?

 

[AniHawk]

Very weird. I've heard rumblings of FF4 The After heading to a console, but it wasn't 360.

It was Wii, wasn't it. A $50 retail Wii release.

john tv: is that a confirmation of sorts? I thought you had ties or something. Somewhere.

 

[Rpgmonkey]

Crystal Defenders is on all three consoles, right?

Same case here?

 

[Rlan]

It's a little bit of a stretch, because an Xbox Live Arcade title almost always has "xboxlivearcade" at the end of the URL.

My guess is that... well, someone knows more about something, and tried to find any real evidence currently available on the internet view sleuthing

 

[Quazar]

heh nice. Just found out about Crystal Defenders in arcade thread a little while ago as well.

 

[Guled]

is this game good?

 

[Askia47]

Sweet.

 

[RevenantKioku]

Very weird. I've heard rumblings of FF4 The After heading to a console, but it wasn't 360.

Either would be fine at this point. JUST DO IT UP.

 

[Hwang Seong-Gyeong]

Good, now port all that DS/PSP stuff to XBLA.

 

[RevenantKioku]

It was Wii, wasn't it. A $50 retail Wii release.

All the stories for a $50 Wii release would be too kind.

Good, now port all that DS/PSP stuff to XBLA.

That just seems silly.
If anything this is the only time the PS3 seems reasonable, if you would be able to put it on the PSP.
DS releases would be the best, but I just regret having the iPhone and canceling my Docomo. ;-;

Sorry, I've got no idea. I just hope it's true 'cause I enjoyed what i played of the cell phone version, but never got around to finishing it.

 

[Teknoman]

Good, now port all that DS/PSP stuff to XBLA.

Metal Slug 7 already incoming.

 

[grandjedi6]

I fully expect "The After" to appear on all three consoles' downloadable services. If only because it makes no sense not too.

 

[AniHawk]

Ah, thanks.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Yeah, I thought Dragona and others hinted at it being WiiWare.

 

[Zoe]

Booooo. Wrong platform

 

[grandjedi6]

Good, now port all that DS/PSP stuff to XBLA.

Also port all that PS3/Wii/360 stuff to the handhelds

 

[soco]

perhaps Microsoft is preparing the XBLM for windows mobile phones? perhaps it's a port to the Xune or something and upcoming announcements are still pending.

i have a hard time believing that it'd be an arcade title simply because many of the titles have had a bit of work done to them to make them appear decent in HD.

 

[neojubei]

Good, now port all that DS/PSP stuff to PSN.

Fixed.

 

[RevenantKioku]

Hold on.

I just got an erection.

DSi! Do it! For the sake of fucks.

 

[Kazenone]

I would've figured The After being a prime candidate for DSiWare.

 

[Paracelsus]

Megaman 9?

It's a brand new title, and a Jrpg. I'm sure nobody will care about graphics and such. Suikoden is one of the currently best sellers on PSN atm, for example.

This probably will get a Puzzle Quest-like release. Everywhere.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

But I wanted Final Fantasy 1 on XBLA! Grumble grumble.

 

[Fourth Storm]

Bring it!

And after that, bring over Radical Dreamers for the Sattleview.

 

[soco]

whether any consumers care is irrelevant. there are policies in place to prevent people from just shoveling stuff over.

 

[Peronthious]

Dude. Duuude.

 

[Zombie James]

What is "The After" anyways?

 

[Nemesis_]

I've always been interested in The After, but never got to play it. I am for this motion =P

 

[GoldandBlue]

Crystal Defenders is on all three consoles, right?

Same case here?

This is what I'm expecting. I expect when they Officially announce it, they'll announce for all three like they did with the Crystal Defenders.

 

[schuelma]

Yes, agreed.

 

[Nif]

Neat. I still want Secret of Mana with online coop. I'll have to start a really badass petition or something.

 

[Lagunamov]

Yosumin is only on xbox 360...

 

[Hero of Legend]

Maybe we'll see this game in today's Famitsu? Hopefully confiming that it'll be on all three services ala Crystal Defenders.

 

[RevenantKioku]

What is "The After" anyways?

Bunch of stories about characters and the events maybe 16~18 years after the events of FF4. I forget exactly, but I'd peg Theodore around 16. He's the son of Cecil and Rosa.

Has a really cool moon system for impacting how certain commands are in battle. During different phases some get stronger and some get weaker. Physical, white magic, black magic and I forget the fourth.
There are also combo attacks that can be found. Kinda like the twins' twincast, which is now one of those as well.

 

[Y2Kev]

They should put it on iPhone.

 

[Regulus Tera]

What is "The After" anyways?

Sequel to the original game. It follows Cecil and Rosa's son, Ceodore. Full of retcons and shit.

 

[Amir0x]

Very weird. I've heard rumblings of FF4 The After heading to a console, but it wasn't 360.

Most like it's coming to more than one downloadable service, as Crystal Defenders is.

 

[Nemesis_]

Full of retcons and shit.

Really? =(

 

[clashfan]

is this game good?

.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Really? =(

Expect to hear much bitching after the game releases.
