Virtuos porting a AAA title to Switch

Virtuos has worked on all sorts of ports and remasters in the past. Their previous projects include Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age, Final Fantasy X/X-2, HD, Batman: Return to Arkham, Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection, and plenty more. Now the studio is turning its attention to Switch.

Hmm, wonder what the most likely possibility is...

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory3233d ago

Either Assassin's Creed or one of the Final Fantasy Remaster.

If I had to guess it would be Final Fantasy X and X-2 HD. If that the case I'll play Final Fantasy X for the 4th time again.

wonderfulmonkeyman3232d ago

If they do FF X and X-2, I'd be playing them for the first time, here.
And if they do an Assassin's Creed title, it won't be the latest one; likely a port of an older one.

Segata3232d ago

Isn't LA Noire rumored for the Switch?

porkChop3233d ago

Hmm. Looking at their catalog, they've worked with multiple publishers. It could be any game for all we know. Hopefully it's a good one though.

PhoenixUp3233d ago

Please be Super Mario Galaxy HD Collection

_-EDMIX-_3233d ago

I'm not saying no, but wouldn't it likely be Mario Land from Wii U?

It also could be something from Ubisoft or Square since they've worked with this port team in the past before.

What if its Bravely Default and Second or even Assassin's Creed collection from last gen?

Omnislashver363232d ago

Galaxy looks amazeballs in HD though. I could easily see it being that game.

porkChop3232d ago

I would take the Bravely games in a heartbeat. But, do we classify those as AAA games though? AAA normally means big budget/high production values.

Segata3232d ago

Mario 3D World is on Wii U. That's something Nintendo could do themselves. Mario Land is a Game Boy game. Mario 3D Land is a 3DS game. Bravely Default isn't an AAA game.

_-EDMIX-_3232d ago

@sega-my response was simply based on him stating Galaxy it had nothing to do with this actual developer.

@pork-I also hope they poured over the Bravely Default games but I don't think that's what this team is talking about as you're right I don't think I would classify them as AAA.

I think it might be the Assassin's Creed games.

wonderfulmonkeyman3232d ago

If they do a remake of the original Bravely with new graphics and a revamped second half just for Switch, and include Bravely 2 into the bargain even without huge changes, that would be a big seller for Switch.

_-EDMIX-_3232d ago

@Wonderful- I think it'd be too soon for full on Bravely Default remake, but its Square lol

I'd buy that in a HEART BEAT!

I'd say Bravely Default and Animal Crossing are my most played games on 3DS with well over 300 hours (granted I've played Bravely Default like 4 times)

They might make a remaster of both games on Switch before Bravely 3rd games out.

or they might make it look like World Of Final Fantasy ala remake of FFIV if anyone remembers that on DS.

or the game they are talking about might be World Of Final Fantasy, or it could even be FFXIV!

Didn't Square say that was something they were looking into or?

Could work. Many need to remember that FFXIV is also on PS3, so it very much can work on Switch no questions asked.

Could also be the KH collection.

Mario Land isn't on Wii U, that's a Game Boy game

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory3232d ago

Miyamoto already said no to past Mario remakes.

_-EDMIX-_3232d ago

But clearly it would not be the first time a developer has stated no and something happening anyway.

And I think Phoenix is just hoping.

Outlawzz3233d ago

Nice hopefully it's announced soon

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio40d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing40d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9240d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit40d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing40d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9240d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
