Forums - Nintendo - The first Crystal Chronicles should be remade for the Wii.

I know, remakes are WAY to common these days, but I still stand by this opinion and idea. If there is any GC game that would benefit from a remake it would be this one.  This is because  the multiplayer aspect can be fixed to suit the Wii. For those who don't know, the game's multiplayer required the use of multiple gameboye advances. Now normally this wouldn't be too bad, but it was quite rare to find a friend with both a gameboy advance and the necessary advance cable. You could either find friends who had one, or buy multiple gameboye advances, and the cables to connect to the gamecube. Now the Wii offers something the gamecube didn't really push in, online. When online, you  have the only advantage the GBA gave, individual screens for menus. So online co-op would work pretty well. Also, in co-op you don't need anything more than friend codes so it would work out. Only thing I would expect that may or may not happen would be Wii Speak. Now if we are really lucky, there could be DS integration as well. The DS connects to the Wii wirelessly, and I have 4 DS', even if you don't have 4 DS' it is much more accessible to just have the handheld(which almost all gamers have) than a handheld and a cable. So that could work as well. So yeah, that is why I think the first Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles game should be remade for the Wii. This is only if these things are added, and it wasn't a direct port. This is one of the few games that would benefit from a remake/port. What is everybodies opinions on this?

i agree but if they do it it must be a remake not a port and add things such as online co-op and other features, it would suit well on a system that has already 3 crystal chronicles.



I hope it borrows elemnts from Phantasy Star Online and not the Echoes of time thingy V_V

It would probably play like the first game does in regular multiplayer. Which plays more like Echoes of Time and Ring of Fate than Phantasy Star Online. I'm not talking about a reworking of the basic gameplay like that.



It could work for me, if you get the option to either use DS's or Online for multiplayer. Some new content would be nice though, and DLC.

Would be nice, but if they did, I'd like to see them tweak the artifacts system a little. In the end, getting the rare artifacts was frustrating because it would usually involve repeatedly beating the same level with a good score and hoping that the "random artifact group" chosen happened to have the artifact you came for. I have up after 20 attempts at Goblin Mine for the last artifact there....



also IR would work really well with this game

I agree. The original Crystal Chronicles is the only game i've ever dis-owned (as in re-sold, and i never again claimed ownership of it, like if you look on my list here), because it was boring as piss in the single-player mode, and i wasn't jumping through all those hoops to get it to work. To re-work it with proper online multiplayer could easily not only save the concept, but make it a great game in its own right.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

agree that game was a waste of my time i didnt like the gamecube to gba connection



The first FFCC is the best, I agree 100% with the OP.
