I'm waiting for that obligatory "this game sucks anyway. Nobody would buy this game on nintendo console" response

 

"Incidentally, I think that Switch would be really cool if it could run Android apps on its portable screen…"

I agree with you on this matter, mr tabata. But looking at how nintendo is treating NSwitch, they probably will tell you to use your phone instead.

I'm usually one that says stuff like that because most of the time it is true (for games like For Honour and Mass Effect), but for final fantasy, thats wrong, i think Nintendo fans would like to have it on switch and that they would buy it if it was, even with downgrades.

And if and lets be real, the game would've bombed, then the next excuse woudl be "becaue it was downgraded"

what Ninty fans? There hasnt been a main FF game since SNES that was 1994. That was 23 years. ago. So anyone who really cares at this point has either moved on or been buying PSs to play those games this entire time. Hell 23 years. That means that means their have been more main FF games released on SOny systems than Nintendo, more than twice the amout. Doesnt matter where it started FF and Sony are symbiotic at this point, moreso than it was ever with Nintendo

Forget FF itself and just look at JRPG's or heck other SE games on Nintendo consoles, handheld and home.

There is still a market there.

I'm not gonna forget FF because that is the game we are talking about, not some B-A rated spin off. A main FF game. A series that hastn appeared on Ninty consoles in a while. Sure there is s market for JRPGS but is there a market for FF on Switch? In a world where people can get the game for two (soon to be 3) other systems that they actually buy and play? and those systems will not doubt run the game MUCH better? I'm sorry I'm not seeing it. I think a switch version would do a bit better than Xone version and for the work they have to do that aint worth it. IMHO

How good is FFXV?? I really wanted to try this game, but I haven't checked the reviews. I hope that one day could be on the switch.

Wait like a year or two and play it when some ultimate/complete edition comes out.

The game is very imcomplete and rushed the last 1/2 of the game. It's supposed to get more fleshed out in patches and DLC. Don't buy now since you'll just get upset at playing what feels like an incomplete game.

Thanks!

How about lets bring up a hypothetical FF16.

Let's say they decide to go for some form of graphics of FF13-15 mix up. Something that still looks great, but is able to be on the Switch as well as the One/4

They all release at the same time. Do you really think there is not a market on the Switch. I can see people seeing a handheld final fantasy as a very appealing option. You know not having to be stuck on the same couch for a 100 hours, but being able to play in bed, one bus, at lunch, ect as well as their comfy couch.

And Yes I woudl gladly welcome a downgrade in graphics, if that meant the towns were bigger than a gas station and an RV, or they managed to complete the game and not have some hack/rush job in the last half of the game dropping plotlines, finishign plotlines through notes ont eh floor or learning about the entire 10 year timeskip from a boy telling you about it through optional dialogue.

If we go back to ff13 graphics to make a better story and world, I'm all game. Which, the Switch could handle. Thus in that scenerio, I could see the game selling at least half what PS4 does, and obviusly more than the one.



Just remember the only one to be blamed for FF going to PS1 is Nintendo themselves. SquareSoft at the time asked Nintendo to use a CD drive or otherwise would be impossible to bring the games they wanted to their console, and SquareSoft was almost a 2nd party for Nintendo at the time, and they were pretty much ignored.

Just Saying.

Although, do we need a thread every time a game doesn't come to switch? Specially if the game was garbage anyway?

Yes so we can beat into the ground, into obscurity like the WiiU. Because forums really made the difference there.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Tss the Wii and WiiU already had so many shovelware so why add more with FFXV?

=p.

yeah hypothetically speaking if it did release on switch and did bomb, im sure plenty of people would say that, but really would it be wrong? I think it definitely would be one reason. Just because a nintendo fan says something, doesnt mean its wrong.

I do however think it would have sold decently (not as good as PS4 though) because the nature of the game fits in well with Nintendo's games, and the protability aspect would help people choose it over PS4.



I'm sorry but you're delusional if you think the Switch can run FF XV. lol



Depending on their OS android apps might even run natively on it. Would make it so much easier for SE to port all of their android games.
