"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

Meh. The Shining Force games suck.

 

Just in case you didn't know, the PS2 Force games aren't true Shining Force games. Normally the SRPGs got the Force title. Everything else in the Shining Universe didn't. They messed up on the last two PS2 games by giving them Force titles.

Naa they didn't, well for us maybe but not for them since it probably made the game sell alot more then would without the "Force" word.

 

Yeah, thats what I think too. They made it a Force title to try to draw the old crowd back. It might have helped to sell more, but it might have ruined the Force brand. Lots of PS2 players don't know what a true Shining Force game is. If the game isn't to their liking, they might stay away from all future Force games and it's not even what Shining Force is really like.

 

This is me.

Camelot should just work on Golden Sun Wii



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

I believe Sega still owns the rights to the "Shining" series, so it's likely that they are.

Hum.

Sorry, I read the whole thing and there s NO MENTION of a Wii version.

It's all about DS version...

I couldn't find any mention of an unannounced Wii Shining Force game either.

Yup, thats pretty much my case, That NEO game left a bad taste in my mouth and i am not touching anything That series has to offer.

 

They say this series was SEGA's answer to Nintendo's Fire Emblem, Wow how is this a big insult to FE >:(.

Here’s a few other things that we know so far:

Developed by Flight Plan (Summon Night series)
Producer is Sega’s own Yoichi Shimosato (Shining Force III, Exa, and World Destruction)
Character designs by Pako (Shining Force EXA) and Noiji Ito (Haruhi Suzumiya series)
Strategy RPG
Top-down, isometric view
Turn-based movement while on the field (similar to originals)
Sideview once battles take place
Completely 2D
The battle system will allow players to team up their forces for combination attacks.

The rest of it is here:

These infos are about the DS one, right?

About the Wii... Looks like the rumours are surrounding the Wii for some time:

If you've actually played a real Shining Force game, you won't be disappointed. Fire Emblem was the First SRPG to come out, but that was in Japan only back in 1990 on the NES. That is something that a lot of people don't know. I doubt that you've played it back then either. In the US, the first SRPG was Shining Force in 1993. Nobody really knew about Fire Emblem until 2003, which was when they first released a Fire Emblem game in the US. By then, Camelot Software Planning, originally Sonic Software Planning, partnered with Nintendo and already released 2 Golden Sun games. Camelot was the creator of the Shining Force series. So if you like Golden Sun, you'll like Shining Force. They are pretty similar to eachother.
