Forums - Gaming - Tales of Vesperia Trailer - Which System?

Well I'm not good at judging graphics, sometimes I look at screenshots and think they are looking absolutely great and then I read comments and everybody wrote that it looks like a N64 game or something...

But here, I can tell at least that it looks way better than ToS did, and kinda on par with Eternal Sonata (for my eyes at least). So I doubt it is coming to the Wii, although I'd love to be wrong, especially because I'm not looking that much forward to ToS:KoR.

Naznatips and Happy already said Wii can handle this...

Joke: WHAT?! REPENT OR YOUR SOUL WILL BE THROWN INTO DARKNESS! REPENT I SAY! YOU WILL NOT BUY THE GAME OF THE GENERATION? DIE! REPENT! DIE!!

Serious: Really, why not? You love ToS, don't you?


Of course I love ToS, I just think that a sequel probably ruins a lot. Epic games like ToS should not have sequels, they are great at their own. The worst thing will probably be the story, cause ToS had an ending that doesn't need a continuation.

 I will buy ToS:KoR anyway (if it gets decent scores, that is) but I expect it not to be as much fun as the original ToS or ToP. That is why I am more excited about ToI and why I hope ToV will be on the Wii.

I can't believe you guys are still arguing this.

Its almost certainly a PS3 title, with a chance of also being a 360 title. End of story.

Whether the Wii (or other platforms) get a "port" down the track - always possible.

Seems like my post got lost...such a shame and I put so much time into it.

Naznatips, you're wrong about Tales rarely pushing the systems graphical capabilities:

Tales of Phantasia is considered one of the best looking games on the SNES.

Tales of The Innocence on the DS simply looks beautiful.

Tales of The World: Radiant Mithology on the PSP uses the same engine as Tales of The Abyss, a PS2 game. And it looks awesome of course.

That doesn't seem to be the trend with ToS: KoR (which IS a spin-off, and here's the proof: In recent canon Tales of titles, the trailers usually begin with "next Tales of...". Does the ToS: KoR begin with that? No? Ok, there you have it), but since Tales of Vesperia is a canon Tales of game, it most likely pushes the system's capabilities like Phantasia or Innocence.

Anyway, I really want it on Wii for the higher possibility of it coming to America. I'll buy the system it's for regardless of the price, but if it doesn't come to America...that could be a problem (yes, even if it's PS3 without region lock, I want to understand the storyline which I always enjoy in Tales of games)

Naznatips, I can sense that you don't like Tales of games that much, am I right?


Tales of Phantasa was a good looking game because of it's art. Not it's technical prowess. Tales of Innocence is absolutely pushing the DS, but it's also had the longest production cycle of any Tales game ever... reported at over 2 years. Tales of the World does not look good for a PSP game ( http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpagesscreens/934090.asp?screenid=3 ) . Tales of the Abyss looked bad for a PS2 game, and Tales of Symphonia was average looking for a gamecube game.

Tales of Symphonia: KoR is not a spinoff. It's a mothership title. The tales roadmap for early spring shown earlier in this topic shows this very clearly. The big bubbles represent systems with Mothership titles. As the only Tales game on the Wii, the fact that the Wii bubble was large represents absolute proof that Tales of Symphonia: KoR is a mothership title. Thus not a spinoff. Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology on the other hand was an escort title (spinoff).

I don't dislike the Tales series... I take each game for what it is. I loved Tales of Symphonia, but I despise Tales of Eternia, Tales of the Abyss, and all the Tales of the World Spinoffs. I recognize that Tales, like Final Fantasy, is a series with some good games and some really bad games. Even if its fans sometimes can't see that. Tales is not a series known for pushing the consoles its on, and Tales is a milked series whether you like it or not. I will play the game if it's good. I won't if it's not. It's as simple as that.



the screenshots that were released were in 720p. Wii can't do that.

Check ps3fanboy.com for the info. That's where joystiq dumps all of its ps3 news. As I'm posting this on my iphone I can't post links.

I'd assume X360/PS3.

Looks like it might be using a similar cell-shading library to that of Eternal Sonata for the X360.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

It would be a pity to see this miss the Wii. Namco would really dissapoint me if they tried to scatter the Tales of Series anymore this generation. I really wish publishers would just either support all consoles or choose a console for a franchise and stop trying to play the field like its the trendy thing this generation.

You honestly don't think the WII will have 2 Tales of games in a year, now do you Its PS3 / 360, mark my words.

One can always hope. You probably have a point though.

It's a pity to see this happen to the Tales of Series, thought Namco had finally wisened up, but it is trendy to support all consoles this generation. "Hey everyone, want to like a franchise? Better buy every single console!"
