Not sure why people want PS3 version scrapped.

Is it because it allows them to feel like their PS4 purchase is justified if that happens, because personally I don't see the big deal with it also being on PS3.


Gives uneasy feeling namely with a game that is most likely coming out next year, that we are not using "modern generation" to the fullest potiential. 

Sony historically have always supported their consoles for a long time. I'd rather they continue to instill that reassurance in me as a buyer.

Hmm I have strange feeling we might not get the ps3 title in the west. Also wouldn't this be Square Enix's decision, not Sony.

Sony always championed the 10 year plan last decade. This is them actually demonstrating that they were serious. There is no reason for them to go against what the brand already established and cut support now. Besides if a game can be scales to work on PS3 why not put it there since its extra sales and more people can enjoy the title.

Still hope for a Vita version.




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

Megaton!!! (to me anyways). I'm surprised to see no X1 version, I wonder if FF Type 0 sales had anything to do with it.

Seems possible, but it really depends how western PS3 software sales develop in the next year. If they're too low to reason a release (even though the game is fully translated due to the PS4 version), they might just release it in Japan only, because Japan hasn't quite jumped on the PS4 hype train yet.

Then again, what holds them back from a japanese-only PSVita release?

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE THE LAST HOPE SO MUCH

As for the actual game, while I'm sad it won't be a step forward as much as SO3->SO4, it has the chance to redeem itself from SO4 by actually being good. Still can't believe I wasted 50+ hours getting every ending with SO4.

Well yeah, I mean that Sony create consoles with such a good echo system that developers will want to support it for a long time.
But Sony themselves also tend to support their systems with good games rather than holding them off for the next gen.

Though what makes you think that it will be PS4 only in the west? Besides Dragon Quest: Heroes, are there any other examples of Suare doing that?

Square is the same company that didn't release Type-0 on handhelds in the west (when they should have), that is why I say they most likely won't. I hoping the rumor that Sony is putting money behind this, to be true, because honestly if it is ps3/ps4 title, everyone should be able to play it, not just Japan.
