My vote goes for more WiiWare games. I just finished My Life as a Darklord and loved it. I love tower defense games and Final Fantasy games, so when I finally realized that this game was a mix of those two, I couldn't resist downloading it. Thankfully, I pretty thoroughly enjoyed this game. Plus only being ten dollars was another big plus for me.

I love strategy games and the fact that they are so cheap to download and I don't even have to leave my house to buy them makes them extremely attractive to me, as I hate buying games at Gamestop. Although I don't have MLAAK yet I plan to get it when I have more points.

I personally would rather them continue the series with fun, innovative Wiiware games than with sub par console games for $50. Although I must say that I haven't played either of the last two Wii games, the low review scores scared me away.

*Side rant*
Now before I get attacked for not being able to make my own decisions about games, let me just say that I am a poor college student who doesn't want to waste that much money on something that isn't a sure thing. And even when I do buy new games I usually make sure that it is from a small publisher so I feel like maybe I am helping them out (my last three Wii games were Little King's Story, Rune Factory, and ToS).
*End rant*

 

So, what would everyone else like to see SE do with the Crystal Chronicles games?

They should cancel it. It serves no purpose.



I LOVE ICELAND!

Get back to basics maybe? Make a real Crystal Chronicles 2 built for the Wii with good online.



They should burn it down and give Wii owners true Final Fantasy games.



Above: still the best game of the year.

The gamecube game was the best one, unfortunately nobody owned the cables that were needed for the game to shine. The DS versions were great too but they required multiple copies, which is an even bigger requirement. The Wii however doesn't need anything extra to connect to DS's (it can connect to about eight, can't it?). I think if they made a good game in the same vein as the original it would do well, there are far more Wii's and DS's out there than there were GC's and GBA's.

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

A Crystal Chronicles 2 with Mii support. Yeah, that would be cool. And DLC.

^ This. Mutiplayer is the key. Otherwise, just do some on the DS or wiiware.



Currently Playing: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked, Professor Layton and the Curious Village

how about canned the series?




They need to stop treating it as a 3rd-hand series, and start putting some actual effort into it. Right now, it's being treated as token support for "See, we put an FF on Nintendo." But with a sliver of the budget and even an even smaller one for advertising, of course they don't do as well. Then the HD fanboys can hail up the mainline as selling better and perpetuating myths that truthfully, are getting annoying.

Hey, come on, some of us like the series. And it's a reasonably good seller, apart from Crystal Bearers.
