The Japanese mobile phone game is coming to America.

February 27, 2009 - Did you know there was a sequel to Final Fantasy IV released on mobile phones in Japan? It's true! Looks like American gamers will be getting a chance to play it, too, as a synopsis for Final Fantasy IV: The After Years has popped up at the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB). En route to the Wii, the sequel is described as a 2D role-playing game involving -- what else? -- magic crystals. Players adventure across an overworld map and delve into dungeons, getting caught up in turn-based battles along the way with leopards, birds, and monster fish (the worst kind of fish).

Final Fantasy IV: The After Years will be rated "E" for everyone and includes references to alcohol and mild fantasy violence. No release date is available at this time. The fact that it was a mobile phone game in Japan makes a WiiWare release possible.----- Daemon Hatfield

Atleast it is some support.

So... S-E gave us a nearly straight DS to Wii port and we might be seeing a straight mobile phone to Wii port too?

Where's a facepalm picture when you need one...

It is just a remake or a port of cell phone game.

I'd hope they at least take advantage of the Wii to do decent graphics.

Wow, massive support from SE!

I hope it's a straight port. The closer to original FFIV graphics, the better.

What's next SE? Seriously!

You don't need the picture. You can just do this.

ROFL

Seriously, talk about no respect for Wii. When they moved FFXIII Agito and Parasite Eve 3 to PSP, they developed a new engine, and put Nomura on board as well.

But they expect Wii owners to eat-up a port of a fairly old mobile game. I'm speechless, especially as this announcement is coming after the infamous Wii/DS Echoes of Time one, that most of Wii owners hated.

O man. Please, at least put this on DS. Don't give the Wii a mobile port.
