I never said anything about FF becoming exclusive to Nintendo. That wouldn't work and it would sell even less than it's selling right now.

I'm talking about spreading the FF gospel to other platforms, because right now it's all focused on PS. Is it that hard to agree with? It's not an outrageous opinion.

Numbers don't lie.

Yes it is. The Wii U was a flat out disaster and Square was lucky to dodge that bullet and XIII wouldn't have been possible on the Wii. There is absolutely no way Final Fantasy's decline is linked to squares focus on playstation. Instead why not state the obvious - which is the disinterest with which japan feels towards traditional gaming platforms. Also, by your logic. Yokai 3 should have been on the ps vita given its huge decline and the fact that level 5 completely ignored another platform? Can't have it both ways mate.

Hey Sammy? How open are you to the idea of every third party Nintendo exclusive releasing on PS and PC?

Lets start a petition for Yokai Watch, Ace Attorney, Monster Hunter, SMT and more to be released on multiple platforms.

You in?

Did you know that Final Fantasy spread its gospel to other viable platforms since 2010?
 
Sammy I dont think your winning this conversation. RPG are a tough sale on wii u as is I mean XCX while having a better first week then XC only sold 130k. FFXV has to do a lot more on wii u for that to happen and produce profit. Also wii u cant support the engine as is so there is that.

Which FF should have been on a Nintendo platform? FFXV, FFXIV, FFXIII - none of these games would have been possible at the time on Wii U, Wii, DS or 3DS.

TBF RPG's sell great on Nintendo handhelds as do SE's that's why DQ was moved their in the first place and Bravely did quite well considering it's circumstances.

I know they do Im talking FFXV how that would be peobably viable for wii u at all due to costs for engine porting and just how hard it is to sell a rpg on wii u.

Bravely default is the prime example. Mentioned in the last thread but a new RPG IP sold more than 1 million copies worldwide and then got completely shafted by SE.

It's just incompetence by them and they have no one to blame but themselves in that regard.
