Forums - Nintendo - NX's most important gets: FFXV and FF7 remake

DQXI is not in development for NX, it is just a possibility. NX has to prove it can be successful among gamers at large first, lots of WiiU games like that have been cancelled after all.


Those were by and large western games.   And NX is likely a handheld and a console.  At least the handheld will be highly successfull in Japan. They said it was coming to nx and then they backtracked shortly thereafter.

You want them as launch titles? But that means the NX won't release this decade, probably not a good idea to wait that long


Haha, nice one.

The sad part of that statement is probably true.

 

on topic, neither game is important because neither will be an exclusive. That means if people aren't onboard with Nintendo already, they'll just get it for PC, PS4, or XBone instead. How of they were exclusives to NX, that would be a very different story.

right now, DQXI is probably the more important game to get, as many people who would be in the market to buy that game have not bought any of the consoles the home console version will be appearing on. DQ is bigger in Japan than Final Fantasy, and PS4 hasn't really taken off there, and Nintendo can take many of those sales with DQXI as a launch title.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

NX is going to be 3 years to late to care whether or not it has gen 8 game support. by the time NX releases there will probably be around 75 million gen 8 console sold. wiiU was to late to be relevant with gen 7 games and too early to get gen 8 games. NX will be the same,.. too late for gen 8 and too early for gen 9.

I don't think there would be 75 million home consoles by that time. We are just talking about these games to be launched to NX as well.  So gamers who wanted to own an NX system which has these games, there is a bigger chance for sale, especially in Japan.

You sure about that? The latest predictions by IDC had 51m consoles sold by the end of 2015. Even if NX is a 2016 release, which isn't guaranteed, then that would only need another 24m consoles sold in 2016 to get to 75m.


no i'm not. And sold at the moment is around 25m for PS4 and 13m for X1. The argument I'm stating is that NX would be relevant if they get the likes of FF franchise in their library.  and i don't think Wii U would be relevant because the thread is about NX if they would get FF XV and VII:R, then how would a 10m Wii U be relevant.  and other Wii U owners have PS4 or X1.

As in you think NX is still to weak to run FFXV + FF7 remake?

As in i wouldn't hold out hope for games until theyre actually available, unless theyre being made by first party, and even then..   can we really be certain Zelda U wont end up Zelda NX?

Can we really be sure NX is a home console?

That's just it, we don't even know yet and people are making threads like this.

Like i've said in most of these type of threads, if the rumour of them wanting to ship 20 million NX's in the first year is true, then that means it's going to be weak, it wont be able to run FF7 Remake.

It would be a big deal if Nintendo gets the FF and DQ franchises for NX. I think this would hurt Sony sales in Japan and would go a long way to securing Japan. Well DQ for sure. I'm not so sure that the FF franchise will do as much as it used to. Personally I don't think that FF7 will really do all that much overall.

You're also forgetting Sony would obliterate S-E in court, for breach of contract.  I mean, it's an interesting thought, but it ignores the deals that've already been made between Sony and S-E.


What deals? What contract?



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Or it could just be really, really awesome and totally nail FF7 remake perfectly!

So much talk of conjecture yet so little certainty on information ...

So much assuredness about how Nintendo's next console platform been more viable for these games but so little look on the actual data ...

JRPGs have NEVER meant much when it came to Nintendo consoles since the WII. If we take a look at last gen, the WII performed JUST AS badly as the Xbox 360 when it came to selling JRPGs so why is there no cries about this fact ?

When all is said and done I think FFXV on the X1 will outsell the WII Us highest selling JRPG. Square Enix is not stupid no matter how much people want to paint them as such ...

So much thirst for JRPGs on Nintendo consoles around here yet so little of it actually translates in the real world ...


I only said it could be of great strategic advantage to Nintendo if they secured releases of FFXV and FF7 - not saying it will happen, but it's obvious value means we can't take it off the table.

Heres a shocker....Just buy a ps4 ?
