The wii may get games like FF, but not the same FF as the 360/PS3 which is fine, most people don't really care if the games go to all systems.

I think what will happen this gen is games will be coming out for the PS3/360 and will sell well, the wii won't get the same games becasue it is impossible for them to get the same graphics, AI, sound and everything else that seperates the PS3/360 from the wii.

The wii will get stripped down versions of some of the PS3/360 games and seperate games that just use the wii-mote.

 The Wii's graphics are strong enough to hold a Final Fantasy game, in no way would the "limitations" everbe enough of a roadblock to keep SquareEnix from considering a Wii title.

 Sound?  Are you seriously suggesting this?  Try again, please.

AI is the closest you have come to a legitimate claim for this.  Unfortunately, the AI in an RPG is exceedingly weak in comparison to the AI used in a fighting game or an RTS or an FPS.  The Wii can handle RPG-AI.

The only negative thing that really comes into play here is that it may need multiple discs.  "OH NO!" we cry.  "Multiple discs?!?  We haven't needed to use multiple discs since..."  That's right, ease into it... "...since the Final Fantasy games on the PSX."  Shocking, I know.
