How come no one's making a big deal about FFIV: The After Years kicking ass on the Wiiware?

because FF VII was the game that made people care about RPGs in the first place. and so to see it sell this much in 2 weeks says alot.

it rings a bell at SE that people want a Remake

it rings a bell at sony that consumers want their PS1 fixes for the PSP.

Spoony, you are a good sport. I like to tease the two or three Wii fans on N4G.

I just started picking because you brought up Wii in a PSN article.

Is it anything like FF3 on the SNES?

j/k

I always been a phantasy star fan myself but I will give cred to FF series. It is a series without a "final". Maybe SE should think up a new naming scheme for the series??

well, maybe Sony or SE will be kind enough to give us the WW numbers in a few weeks. I'm pretty sure SE would reconsider their current PS3 support if this direct port of an over 10 years old game sells more than anything they have released so far this generation.

1.9 - I don't think it's getting nearly as many sales as FFVII is...
Don't get me wrong, I love FFIV much more than VII, but you're basically paying 30 something bucks for the entire game, where FFVII is just one $10 fee. I find that stupid and don't see why SE felt that it was a must to sell an RPG in episodic form.

FFVI is my favorite RPG of all time. Nothing beats the story, characters, and overall charm.

However, FFVII is a close second.

You sir are the most correct person in this post. You get a bubble. FFIV for the ultimate win. It is the grandaddy of FF's, and FFVII takes A LOT from it. My personal favorite FF game ever.

1.13 - Up until the release of FF7 in 97......
I was a pure Sega guy... Phantasy Star Series, Shining Force Series, and Panzer Dragoon Saga were, in my opinion, the best RPG's on the market and the only ones worth playing.....never messed with nintendo's machines and I had a Sega Saturn that I was very happy with when the Playstation launched....but, when I saw FF7 in action at my neighborhood Funcoland, I walked out of the store that day with a new PS1, Final Fantasy 7 and Rally Cross..... Final Fantasy 7 changed the way I had been thinking for years and luckily over the years I have had an opportunity to play the previous installments... all were great, but in my opinion, FF7 sits on the top of the heap as far as the Final Fantasy Series is concerned....My favorite RPGs of all time are FF7 and Panzer Dragoon Saga....followed by Knights of the Old Republic and Jade Empire for the PC..... these are my opinions and everyone has their right to like what they like.....but, just so we are clear... I am right :)

I kind of know how you feel. Kind of. I bought The After Years, and I am enjoying it. FFIV was also my first FF, so I was pretty excited to get to play after the story. Fact is, the gameplay IS dated, and feels it. FFVII also has dated gameplay, but it's not AS dated. I still consider IV to be the overall better game, but there really is something special about VII, and it's really no surprise that it's getting all the publicity.

If I got the have things my way, they would make a next gen version of VI. VI was the best Final Fantasy, and I don't think they'll ever make another with the quality of it's story and characters.

Not a duplicate. The previous story doesn't have any of the unit sales stats issued by Sony.

And this is just NA. Hopefully, it hits a million. That'd be a quick ten million dollar profit for just a re release.

FFIV the after years on my Wii. It should be on the DSi. If it is then I'll think about it.

I like that I can take FFVII with me now on my PSP and still play it on the PS3. And for those who own more than 1 PSP, the 5 activations you get is great.

I just picked up a second psp (2001 for $80). I tried using my 2gb mspro in it from my psp 1001 and the games I had dl to it wouldnt work. I am betting it is only coded to work with the psp that originally dl it????

I do need to get a bigger mspro. Can you just copy from one stick to the other and play the game so long as it is in the original psp?

You have to activate the other psp under your psn account, without it being activated it'll just give the error message telling you to do so

Why don't square just re-release them all, that would earn you quite a bit of money... in fact why don't more devs re-release more games on PSN/XBL as a side project like Burnouts, older socoms... and anything else. I wasn't much of a gamer 'till PS3 so I can't say much.

re-releasing more titles. It's a weekly objective now for Sony. Plus Square is coming out with Final Fantasy: Tactics, I believe as it appeared on the ESRB ratings.

7.2 - I own both of them...
and still would re-buy them, but in this instance it would be to have on my PSP.

Vandal Hearts I and II were great and still are great. The story on Vandal Hearts and the music was excellent. I heard they were making a 3rd one for the Xbox Arcade and PSN to download. It's supposed to be a prequel to Vandal Hearts I and the hints of who's story. I can't wait. Fake geysers of over the top blood here I come :)

Nice to see some Vandal Hearts fans in here :). I'm sure everyone remembers the villager level where they were possessed by the stone statues, and you had to destroy the statues and not kill all the villagers. Hard but epic level...stupid counter attack lol

7.4 - Dude that level was annoying,but man was it fun!
I had to think about that stage and what strategy I needed to do to succeed. Especially when the zombies surrounded you and you wanted to cut them (and you had to) to get to those damn statues. I love this game. Get on it Konami. In addition to releasing the vandal hearts game you've announced. Released the original too. Make it like gunstar heroes and include trophies. It doesn't need it since it's already awesome but it goes from A+ to A++ in my book. ^_^

The main selling point for me is the fact you can transfer it to your psp. Hopefully this helps SE realize that many PS owners are also rabid FF fans. Thus other psX FF's will be looked at as well.

SE was too stupid and lazy to make an HD version that could've easily sold for $19.99-$29.99. Ti busy making 360 classics like *COUGH* Last Remnant and Infanant Undiscovery I guess.

Hows that working out for ya SE? LOL

But isn't the FFIV game a 5+ cell phone game? With no graphic update, unlike all of the FFI~III remakes?

Oh! I bought FF7 and I really like the pre rendered backgrounds even though it's static. It does so much to engulf you into the game. Much better than how they are doing it now with the high poly characters and bland world map found in psp games currently.

20 - Perhaps to Dream
I downloaded FFVII and I'm loving it. It really take me back when I played it the first time on the PSX. As I play the game I try to imagine what the best and defining moments of the game or even the overall gameplay itself would look like with next-gen graphics just like the tech demo. I'm already sure SE will remake this game in the next-gen style. If the original is selling 100K in 2 weeks, imagine how much the remake would sell. SE has to be thinking the same thing and I'm sure, one day, they'll do it. I'm thinking they're just trying to get all their other projects out of the way first and then they'll start working on the remake. Fingers crossed. Can't wait!
