Since people think the FF main series is bombing so much (I agree on this point btw), why would you want it to come to Nintendo? Wont is just continue to bomb on the Nintendo system?

Agreed. It's the "cool" thing right now to dislike FF for some people and some of those people saying it don't mean it.

Other Wii owners consider a feather in their figurative hats.

Some, like me, just stopped caring a long time ago.

May the Square Soft that brought me the joyous Chrono Trigger rest in peace.


 I'd have to disagree. There's a ton of legitimate complaints that one could bring against the FF series, not the least of which is the fact that the game underneath all of that glitz and glamour is largely boring. Most people who dislike the FF series... actually DO dislike the FF series for good reason.

In fact, I'd go so far as to say that people's nostalgia for the "old" Squaresoft has more to do with childhood nostalgia than anything else. Square's 8- and 16-bit RPGs were mostly monotonous grindfests, as were their PSX-generation RPGs, minus a few gems (FF: Tactics, Parasite Eve, and Vagrant Story for all its flaws). The only way in which the "new" Square is different from the "old" Square is that the "new" Square isn't making games when you were 12 years old anymore.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
