Can it run on the WiiU though? I would think it would need heavy graphical adjustments to do so and that may possible not be profitable for SE.

Well compared to Monolith Soft's X the game looks really similar graphically, CG trailer aside.

why do people keep saying this, its makes no sense considering that FF15 was supposed to be a PS3 game in the first place


But they moved it to the ps4 because the ps3 was hindering the game experience they wanted to create

 

"With current-gen systems, we couldn't fully express what we wanted to do in this project. There were more and more things that we would've had to change the form of. However, the assumption was that we'd go ahead with a current-gen release, so went through a trial-and-error process to do as much as we could. So we built an alpha version about a year ago, and the company response was 'If you remained bound to the current generation, will it be the product you envisioned?' They suggested shifting fully to next-gen, and that was the spark that led to the move.

So then what the hell were they doing for the better part of a DECADE then? I would rather have they game they promised us all that time ago. But you know what? Screw it, i guess tehy dont want my money. Ill give it to someone else.

FF XV still looks like a PS3 game (they actually had some target render shots mixed in with the in-game) but that should change by the time it releases. I think X is still going to look good even in comaparison, Monolith are tech gods.

But anyway SE isn't going to port the games to the Wii U. They moved the game to next gen to take advantage of the better HW and PS4/Xbone are too far ahead of the Wii U for SE to consider it, plus SE hardly supports Nintendo consoles anyway so it'd just be business as usual for them to not ort the games over.

I know Square Enix probably wont support the Wii U with FF15, but i think it is entirely possible for the Wii U to run the game as it is right now, if SE wanted it to. Im not talking about future graphical changes.

This reminds me of the old days when people complained about games going PS3/Xbox 360 and not Wii. It's simply not powerfully enough.

its the circle of life, but I dont think thats really the case at least not in regards to FF15. Then again its not coming to the system it was supposed to so maybe Wii U really cant handle. It makes little difference SE will put it on what they want regardless.

Even through his polite PR speak, he still managed to practically rule out a Wii U version.


In all honesty, the development difference between DX 11/DX 11 equivelant and one API lower is so minute that using that as a means to rule out potential development is a clear case of PR bullshit.  It's a backhanded way of saying no to Wii U without giving a truly valid reason.

I think you mean DX10.1/DX11

Actually, no.   I meant as I stated.  DX 11 and DX 11 equivalent.  DX 11 equivalent would be OpenGL 4.0.

However, the Wii U most likely uses modified OpenGL 3.3 to 4.1 (it's uncertain) but it is known it has DX 11 equivalent features in tesselation and compute shaders among others.

LOL, Wii U just can't do the level of detail FFXV has, stop kidding yourselves. Anyone that says otherwise needs to learn a thing or two by reading NeoGAF or the likes!

 

I mean, check at that polygon count, check those perfectly detailed and sculpted shoulders, with thousands, if not millions of polygons. You just can't do that with mere 160 shaders!

 

Now all sarcasm aside, as much as I'd love to see these games on the Wii U, it won't happen because Square Enix's stupid management, like many of you have pointed out. I think we'll even see them on the iPhone, but not on the Wii U.


Even though you say "sarcasm" I just had to point out (some of) the graphical imperfections so no one goes and thinks that this game is too much for Wii U.

If the Xbox One flops in sales (even in the U.S), they'll surely consider the option to bring, at least KHIII, to the WiiU
The reason why they are releasing both games in the Xbox One is because they know that the Xbox consoles sell more in the U.S, the biggest market of all them.

I could give a rat's ass about FFXV, it's pretty much guaranteed that Monolith's X will be 17 billion times better.
As for KH3, didn't the team who worked on KH3D on the 3DS get promoted to making KH3 because of KH3D's sales? If so, then they're a bunch of assholes for not bringing it to the Wii U. Don't give me the "it can't run on WiiU" bullshit, DX11 or not(and the WiiU DOES support DX11 equilivant features), it should be on WiiU.

LOL, where the hell did you hear that from? the portable KHs have always been handled by a different team. hand or Jupiter. the console ones have been handled by the main team nothing has changed. ANd LOL at your X prediction, havent even seen gameplay but making judgements already? What else does the crystal ball say?
