Forums - Nintendo - So TOS2 was succesful, Namco wants to continue tales series on the Wii

Thanks for the explanation guys, I think I get it now. I'll look in to buying Legendia and Abyss,(I saw both of them last week at EB for a decent price) as the rest are all Japan Only or a biznatch to find I'm assuming. (Destiny and Eternia/Destiny 2)

As for Tales for PS3, I saw this last week

P L A Y S T A T I O N 3

- Bandai Namco confirmed a new Tales title for PS3 will be revealed later this year.

Off topic: DKII will be at E3? Was he invited or did he just buy tickets? Will he be wearing a VGC t-shirt?!? I'm excited!!!

 

We have invitations for the Nintendo and Sony conferences. Microsoft is in the works, so hopefully there as well. So stay tuned to VGChartz next week!

 

I don't believe you can actually buy tickets.

 

We have an invite to the MS conference too, although it was issued in the wrong name so we need to get that changed for Keith.



Well I think Namco is now 3rd favorite company...

Tales or FF:CC? Ugh.............Yeah.

Prediction:
Disney will make KH3 with Nintendo.Yes,KH3 will be a Disney/Nintendo crossover.

ALERT: I have also exposed a UBI'Z'OFT viral marketer in THIS thread.Read my posts, see the set up and watch how everything crumbles on page 8. Please learn from this experience.

I think the Wii will be getting a lot of good news like this in the future.

The PS3 rumor was debunked. It turned out to be a bad translation of a Japanese magazine. However I'd be very surprised if the 360 gets a Tales game and the PS3 won't. I'm sure there's one coming, although maybe it's Vesperia.

I love how they spelled Tales of Phantasia with an F (Tales of Fantasia...ROFL).

Anyway, mothership titles are the main series in the Tales series. The mothership titles include Phantasia, Symphonia, Eternia (also known as Destiny II in the West), Destiny, Destiny 2 (this is different from Destiny II. Destiny II is Tales of Eternia but Destiny 2 is the sequel to Destiny), Vesperia, Innocence, Vesperia, Rebirth, Abyss, Legendia, and now Hearts. They are "mothership", or main series.

Games like Tales of the World are spin-offs - not motherships. TotW doesn't have a 6-8 new character party like mothership titles. Instead, they have 1 or 2 main heroes (sometimes cutsomizable) and characters from other mothership titles appear as temporary party memember, and sometimes NPCs (most recent one is Radiant Mythology where you customize your character and you can meet up with characters like Lloyd, Kratos, Stahn, Rutee, Reid, etc.) There's also Tales of Fandom. Basically, they have lower budget and are less important than the motherships.

ToS: DotNW is kinda...strange. It's a spin-off but has main series qualities so I like to think

This new Wii Tales is mothership, so it's in the main series and as important as Vesperia or Hearts (though budget may not represent that).

Wonder what team will make it. Assuming Team Symphonia (who are making Vesperia currently and made Symphonia and Abyss) work on it immediately like they did from when they finished Abyss to start working on Vesperia, Team Symphonia might be the one making this. If not, then probably another team...

DotNW isn't strange at all.

I remember saying it was a spinoff ages ago on this forum and some Symphonia fanboys got angry, so I wrote out the Tales gaiden guideline and DotNW fit it perfectly. The only thing 'strange' thing is that it's the first console gaiden and it's a sequel to ToS - as suchthe fanboyshad a really hard time accepting that it's not Symphonia 2 and that it's not a main title.

I wouldn't be surprised if the monster breeding aspect was spun off into another subseries called Tales of Monsters or something, similar to how Narikiri Dungeon gave birth to Tales of the World.
