| Soundwave said: Enix has been a strong supporter of 3DS (bet the guy who pushed for DQXI on 3DS/Switch is feeling pretty damn vindicated today) ... but the Square side I'd say has been fairly dissapointing. Who's dick does Nintendo have to suck at Square to get some real Final Fantasy? World of Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy X couldn't have been on the 3DS but rather go to Vita (a system that has less than 1/4 the sales). 20 million install base only gets you two music game spin-offs? Really Square? Really? IMO Square has had a bias towards Nintendo since the N64 days, it's time the executives at the company took charge of the situation and said "you're supporting Switch, period. Stop crying". I think some cold hard reality is going to be dawning on the Square side of the company given these sales. They've let the inmates (the developers) run the aslyum and it's taking the company right down the toilet. Nintendo has made some poor hardware choices, but Switch looks like an honest attempt to make a powerful system *given* the limitations of portability, which is the only type of game platform Japan will accept today. It's time Japanese developers instead of shunning Nintendo understand that Nintendo is trying to save the damn industry in Japan so that *they* themselves also have some kind of future to work with other than iOS. |
No one had to push for DQXI to be on the 3DS roflmao It's the other way around. Someone at Square Enix pushed for a PS4 version (most likely Horii). It was always going to be on the 3DS. And you seem to forget Final Fantasy Explorers.
