Why do people think Final Fantasy is about graphics, all of a sudden? It never has been. It never was. It's traditionally been on the least powerful system in every generation except for this one.

Square follows money.

 

 

how is it not about graphics?  The last few Final Fantasy games with each release set a new standard for graphics on the system at the time, as well with the cutscenes. Yes a game like God Of War had a more raw graphical appeal,  but in terms of the all encompassing aspect of graphics, FF usually raises the bar.

Also, the difference between an Xbox and PS2 graphics wise is much smaller then the Wii and 360/PS3

Lastly, graphics aside, both new FF games are trying to accomplish something new with their respective battle systems from a technical standpoint (especially Versus) that was not possible in prior generations.

Final Fantasy with each release keeps pushing the envelope in certain areas and putting FFXIV on the Wii would be a step back. It's not like they have to worry about sales, it's still gonna sell 8M - 9M on the PS3/360 easily.
