Interview: Square Enix Talks Final Fantasy DS

One of DS's most fervent supporters is RPG powerhouse Square-Enix, which has a pair of Final Fantasy adventures to enjoy during the opening half of the year, including Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, released in February, and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates, out later this month.

Recently, Kikizo had the opportunity to speak with the developers behind these two titles. They discussed the challenges in bringing Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings to life with producer Eisuke Yokoyama and writer/director Motomu Toriyama, while they delved into the secrets of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates with director Mitsuru Kamiyama and executive producer Akitoshi Kawazu.

Two very good games right there. Nice interview and I'm looking forward to more DS games made by Square Enix. They just make great use and mixture of the touch and button controls

JVIDICAN6629d ago

i just wish revenant wings was a bit more serious and related to the original ff12 plot(seemed a little dumed down for the youger audience) still a good game though

lalilulelo6629d ago (Edited 6629d ago )

y Square wastes there time with these half @ssed handheld final fantasy games when they should be working on final fantasy XIII. i f square would not waste so much time with other games, they could almost be done with FFXIII by now...

JVIDICAN6629d ago

they probally are done with ff13,storywise at least
im guessing there fixing bugs touching up the graphics and just making sure its all its hyped up to be

Final Fantasy XII Keeps Getting Re-Released, But Where Is Its Handheld Spinoff?

Revenant Wings made significant, brave changes to the Final Fantasy formula and it's for that reason that it should be reintroduced to the fanbase.

Godmars2901716d ago

Likely can't make a proper gocha out of it.

Inverno1716d ago

Square couldn't be bothered remaking the DS KH games for the collections so it's safe to say they won't bother with this game ever again

FallenAngel19841716d ago

They ported The World Ends With You to two other devices so there’s always a possibility even if it’s small

-Foxtrot1716d ago

I love how we never got a nice little sequel/prequel for VIII or IX but somehow XII and XIII did...boggles my mind

Magic_Spatula1716d ago

Maybe Square didn't deem them good enough to have a continuation? Also, wasn't XIII planned as a 3 part series from the beginning?

-Foxtrot1716d ago

But XII was?

I liked XII, don't get me wrong but if VIII and IX wern't good enough then I don't know how XII was

I think FF13 was planned as one when they wanted to milk the shit out of it after launch, using cut assets

Top 10: Worst Final Fantasy Games

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "The Final Fantasy series is one of gaming’s most revered franchises with many of its games finding themselves near the top of ‘best games of all time’ lists and simply uttering the words ‘Final Fantasy’ usually evokes images of epic quests and world class polish. But not all of the games to bear the name have been worthy of praise. Some, in fact are terrible, unplayable, ugly and obnoxious games that make you wonder how Square Enix ever approved them. So for this week’s Top 10 we’re scraping the bottom of the barrel and counting down the Top 10 Worst Final Fantasy Games."

Addition of FFXIII Lightning Returns and Crystal Bearers make your list redundant.

Though I appreciate the lack of FFX-2.

And I agree with the rest.

DedicatedDark3284d ago

Wait on further thought, the inclusion FFVIII would be nice. Terrible writing, terrible story, terrible gameplay and terrible translation. And therefore a terrible game.

Any Final Fantasy made my SquareEnix. Quick and easy.

SinkingSage3284d ago (Edited 3284d ago )

Since when is After Years or Lightning Returns bad?
This article is garbage, the absolute worst FF, Final Fantasy XIII is nowhere to be seen.

Also, why include a game that doesn't even exist anymore? FFXIV 1.0 is long gone...

overrated443282d ago

Lightning avatar and mad about Lightning Returns being on the list!? https://www.youtube.com/wat...

SinkingSage3282d ago

Heh, yeah, how is LR on the list but not XIII? XIII is pretty bad.
