Tell me this isn't a serious question please :(

I think Final Fantasy has declined a lot in sales. The Last Story is sounding like a game that doesn't come very often and Nintendo is showing they want to market it. They did this to Dragon Quest IX and I think Dragon Quest IX outsold Final Fantasy XIII so it could happen with The Last Story, no?


DQIX outsold FFXIII in Japan yes, but DQVIII got 4.5m and DQIX increased that to 5.3m it isn't a massive step up in percentages.  There's a huge difference between pushing a huge franchise to be even bigger and pushing a new IP to match one of the highest selling JRPG series ever.

I see but is it impossible? If Nintendo gives The Last Story Final Fantasy level marketing it can be possible. The online could mean Japan might get its first multiplayer JRPG. I think there's potential, maybe The Last Story 2 or 3 will see it Usurp Final Fantasy.

White Knight Chronicles had a multiplayer mode...

And then White Knight Chronicles 2.

They were awful games. The Last Story won't be.

Eternal Sonata then.

Edit: WKC2 isn't supposed to be awful.

Eternal Sonata was mediocrity with nice music. WKC2 hasn't been that well received. There has been no amazing console JRPG with multiplayer (online) yet.

Well, we dont even know if the last story will end up being any good, so dont be so quick with leaving good or ok games like those out of there
