It's not like this game will ever make it to America anyway, so we'll never get to play it.

It also doesn't help that the phones under the DoCoMo provider in which S-E designs their games for can run almost at the speed of a normal (i.e. not overclocking the games) PSP. Japan has some wild supercomputer phones that literally can pretty much do it all (Breathalyzer in your phone, probably useless but they have it on there).

Obviously the reason they chose to make it mobile exclusive is because it's very cheap to design for, the consumer base in Japan is xbox hueg, and they don't have to pay as much overhead to release this game for people to buy. Common sense man, goal of a business is to make profit. It's cheap to make a game for a cellphone, so why not create some for some quick change?

At least, they have stated in the past they would be willing to port any of their "mobile-exclusive" games to the DS if they feel it would be worth putting on the market -- AKA if it will make them more money. They're doing it with the mobile game Front Mission 2089 that came out way back in '05.

It's kind of stupid, but at the same time their cellphone games don't move at the rate of slug ass like ours do (now if only they weren't just plain ass). By the time we manage to (if ever) catch up, Japan will use cellphones to perform everyday life functions.

Oh wait they pretty much already do

We'll see a DS port, in like 2010+, and by then no one will really care.

To preserve the tables~

Spoiler:




Dunno if this has been mentioned yet:
  • Obviously a direct sequel -- 17 years after FFIV
  • Will include all the original characters
  • 16-bit 2D Graphic style
  • Is going to be released in chapters with the first being free

They're serious about this. If it will actually turn out the way they want it to turn out no one can really say.

At least you get the first chapter for free!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

There's already a jumping action game with Kain.

In the form of a mini-game in FFIV DS.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
