who wastes money on a dying console like x360

[sephiroths_revenge]

wow that image is amazingly proffeisional

when i look at it kaz hirai it like am looking at a show

[Ace Ventura]

Xbox 360 seems to be fading fast. Not even recognized in multiplatform games any longer.

[alexM]

I mean it makes sense

x360's ww sales have hit near bottom and almost all x360s were traded in for PS3s in eruope

PS3 despite launching 16 months after x360 in eu went on to surpass x360's LTD WW base

after seeing KZ2's footage do u think ANY SANE PERSON (not talking about abnormal XBUTTS) would ever purchase an XFIX ME

[sephiroths_revenge]

yeh but the japanese dont care about the xbox

[AssassinXIII]

"Xbox 360 seems to be fading fast. Not even recognized in multiplatform games any longer."

OMG LOL LOL u make me laugh ROFL ... ur joking right ? cuz if ur not ... ur an asshole ... "Not even recognized in multiplatform" LOL ur so funny

[sephiroths_revenge]

i played the one on dremcast for 20 seconds using an emulator.

it reminds me of Final Fantasy XII

and i hate FFXII. The people that made it made vagrant story and that was good got high reviews. but only becuase people were suprised. They didnt epxect it to be good

SO the people that made Vagrant Story made FFXII but people epxected to much from FF12 and were dissapointed

So yeh i think this will be as dissapointing as ff12

[zimbo007]

just because FLOP ODYSSEY and FLOP DRAGON sucked doesnt mean that you have to bash FF12

FF13 is the biggest game of this generation

[ChickeyCantor]

Zimbo got issues :|

[CrazzyMan]

I`m more then sure, by the end of this year PS3 will be very popular in Japan and all over the world. =)

[Idmpc]

I absolutely loved Skies of Arcadia, and the Final Fantasy series, including Final Fantasy XII...

Skies of Arcadia was one of the few games I had for my dreamcast, and definitely one of the best.

[MK_Red]

Please, PLEASE. Make Skies 2 for PS3 or 360, not Wii. Release a remake of original or something for Wii.

[ChickeyCantor]

" a remake of original or something for Wii."

so that you can bash the wii by saying : WII ONLY HAS PORTS/LAST GEN GAMES????????????????????????? ???

it seems its wii bound, dont make a fuss out of this >_<

[BeNice]

hey MK i thought you were impartial, well you were for a while anyway. But on topic the cube already had skies of arcadia legends which is more or less what you want the wii to get. And since the original only came to the cube it would be logical to have it for the wii. Its not always graphics. i thought someone who has been playing games as long as you have would at least know that. You have turned into a bit of graphics whore/ ps3 fanboy (i expect to get diagress and be flamed for this), here's hoping you return to a real gamers state of mind.

[heyheyhey]

@people above

leave MK alone, i can't believe the N4G community has resorted to attacking one of the nicest and coolest guys on the website

so what if he wants a game on the PS3/360 instead of the Wii? you can't expect him to not say anything bad about any console just cause he's not a fanboy

christ, i keep bashing and bashing and flaming and these people choose to attack MK for being a fanboy instead of me

[BeNice]

i have nothing against Mk , I am generally only pissed off againt individuals like bootselion, crimson wolf, shaka and jackA_sses like them. You used to be a fanboy but you seem more mature about gaming now or you are just going through a good pahse. My point being that Mk has changed i ma not flamin , I have not disagreed with him either.I quite simply stated my opinion. Even thoug i do not feel it is necessary, I apologize to Mk if i came across as unfriendly.

[MK_Red]

Thanks heyheyhey :)

But seriously, I know graphics are not everything but the whole point of Wii is to have either casual games or to have games that are meant for Wii-Mote's use.
Skies... 2 for Wii will become something like Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. It was a great game but was an instant GC game. Didn't use Wii-mote and had PS2 graphics.

No More Heroes, Zack & Wiki and such take great use of Wii-mote and are meant for Wii.

I'm not a graphics fanatic or something. I was, I would have never showed so much love for Rayman Rabbids, Z&W, NMH and MP3.
The thing is that Skies 2 on Wii will be like those cheap ports that I hate.

Wii should either get the remake or better, some kind of Wii-based spin off. To me, there is no place for Skies on Wii. I never bashed or attecked Wii here.
Plus, the only thing that I bash and hate in other posts is Wii Fit, Wii Sports and the crappy side of Wii games not the great ones like SMG, Z&W and such.

BeNice, I know what you mean but I haven't changed. I always supported Wii games that were meant for Wii. Skies on Wii will end up like Fire Emblem. A Wii game that doesn't use Wii-mote which is the whole point of Wii.
I never attacked Wii. I just attack games that don't use Wii-mote or are crappy ports or cheap cash-ins.

[ChickeyCantor]

" To me, there is no place for Skies on Wii."

Look you dont make sense at all, Wii is a gaming machine and what do you know about what they have planned for the new SOA on the Wii.?

You are already Judging these games because of crappy or poorly developed Wii games and thats just shallow.
Who says this game will be developed awesome on the 360 or PS3?
Because these console can handle more it doesnt mean the titles will be a instant hit.

also in another topic this is what i said to you:
" >_< you make little sense you know that.
You pretend a Port for the Wii is bad but it would be okai to remake it for the other 2 i mean really whats the difference then? A remake would only be a Graphicle update...i really dont see how this is any different from a port?
gameplay remains the same "

MK i know you arent trying to take sides or anything but you make LITTLE sense.

[BeNice]

Okay I understand what you mean but here's my take fire emblem was developed for the cube I believe initially , maybe I'm wrong. But do you think the game woule have not worked tih the wii controls for pint and click movement. Rpg's will work with the wii , you can avoid making games with motion controls on the wii. The motion sensor or ir can only be used for say attacks or something. It could also be compatible tih the gamecube controller. At that point I expect that you will ask what's the point of having it on the wii in the first place. The game skies of arcadia legends was a port more or less of the dreamcast, so they didn't really even use the gamecube, with that in mind even utilizing or pushing the new game to gamecube standards would make the game impressive . no doubt its amazing to see a game inhd with great character models and particle effects. However i am of the opinion that's great in an fps where you ahve fun with blowing stuff up but in an rpg however i take the stance that the gameplay should be interesting and it should look pretty artiastically making the environments somethign you want to look at like Metroid.

[MK_Red]

Sidar
I know, judging before anything is out is wrong but I can't help but look at Fire Emblem Wii. The reason I don't think SOA belongs to Wii is because I think it may be end up like FE.
I agree that Wii is a game system but it should get the games that are meant for it. Still, it may be different.

Also, I never said a PS3 / 360 game will be awesome but at least where (IMO) the game has a better chance.

Remake and port are COMPLETELY different. Come on, a port is like a PS2 game or a watered down PS3 / 360 game but a Remake can be a whole lot more than graphical update. In a remake gameplay can also change or get upgraded as well.
Just look at the uber awesome Okami remake on Wii even though that's not a full remake but still is much better than a port.

---

BeNice
I agree on your point on FE's initial system. I see what you mean about SOA: L on GC. Still IMO, a Wii game has to use Wii-mote. Plus, Wii-mote can be used as a mouse cursor on Wii games like Z&E and Metroid. Unleass the new SOA on Wii can take full advantage of Wii-mote, I'm against it.

[heyheyhey]

"you matured about gaming or your going through a good pahse"

yes well after many years of my people suffering through bad pahse's it seems our god pahsemillian has granted us a good pahse this year

i jest, i jest- but seriously, im still a fanboy- i just tend to not show it in the gamer zone

i'l rip you to shreds in the open zone.... with rationality and objectiveness of course

i've always been a good fanboy wouldn't you say? momma would be proud *hums God save the queen*

[ChickeyCantor]

MK
Reimagined remake

"A remake with revisions in the plot, gameplay, and overworld is called a reimagined remake"
~ wiki

enhanced remake
" The basic features of an enhanced remake are graphical and audio enhancements (or "facelifts"). "
~wiki

So when you say Remake you arent clear with what you exactly are saying. Is accepted that "Remake" just means Graphicle update and sound improvements( and maybe some little tweaks here and there).

Also i bet you think RE:5 should be on the other 2 consoles( and it is)? but what if the controlls of the Wii can make it more FUN?
Do you still think RE:5 should be on the other two and not Wii?( it was obvious that RE:5 looks allot like RE:4 gameplay wise)

[crck]

to be in frickin' HD? Nintendo being as cheap as they are decided to pocket the profits instead of providing HD output. If he is a fan like I am why is that so wrong? BTW I wonder how many of the few gamers who defend the Wii so relentlessly ONLY own a Wii? That in itself speaks volumes about the Wii's limited abilities. There are a ton of gamers that only have a PS3 or a 360 because they don't need a 2nd system.

[Charlie2688]

Here MK I brought you your Riot Control Equipment...knowing certain users you are going to need it

if you need back up or an air strike radio me XD

[ChickeyCantor]

" to be in frickin' HD? Nintendo being as cheap as they are decided to pocket the profits instead of providing HD output. If he is a fan like I am why is that so wrong? BTW I wonder how many of the few gamers who defend the Wii so relentlessly ONLY own a Wii?"

i dont think you even understand it yourself, if Mk wanted the GFX he would say it.

Next to it, would the nintendo haters buy a nintendo IF they did indeed made their Wii HD?
Answer : no.

It would have been bashed for the so called " kiddy image " and mario games and so many Zelda games( but Gta 8 is A o kai !!!).

There is nothing wrong being a fan, but saying it shouldnt be on the Wii is nonsense. Wii is gaming console, so it might not have the HD Resolutions but this doesnt mean the game will SUCK.

Im really amazed that you have so many bubbles, because you just barged in and said something without even thinking before you said it.
you deserve NON.

edit: Nintendo wasnt being cheap, they lost to much money with the N64 and GCN. They couldnt take a nother big risk plus this system reached a wider audience.Nintendo going the same road as they did before would have killed them and you know it.

edit:
@ Benice
Exactly, thats exactly whats going on. And thats the thing that annoys me with these people. If we look back at last generation People didnt care and now suddenly its all important. The shallowness is just making my head hurt >_<
Also bub up

[BeNice]

dude something being made into Hd does not make it a better game, i play my wii on a 46 inch lcd hdtv which outputs 1080p. The games look far from bad but it could be because my tv upscales whatever it outputs. It should be on the wii because I think the system has a greater appeal since hardcore gamers largely ignored this gem when it came out on hardcore system last time. A game in hd does not make the game better. it offers it to fewer people too. To answer you second claim nintendo made two graphically superior and harcore systems and wait did gamers care? no they went for the playstation 2 which was a casual gamers system because of all the casual games believe it or not. I owned a ps2 i remember how much crap and nonsensical casual crap it had. Nintendo is doing the same thing allowing casuals and you guys already proved you don't care about intendo , if nintendo came out with an hd system with motion controls it would have cost more and then it would be a war just like last time , all the systems would be alittle more powerful then one another. Nintendo would be ignored again becuase it wouldn't have the install base it has now. Nintendo is not being cheap it is being smart. Also , shouldn't every game on the ps2 be on the xbox cos it would have looked better but no it didn't because ps2 had the install base. The wii is still young and people still aren't mature enough to accept it or relatively new to gaming and try to call themselves real gamers. The wii will get solid hardcore gamin library if these kind of exclusives keep coming and then you will have to accept that it is a hrdcore gaming system. IMO off-topic SMG totally PWNS ratchet and clank and this from an ex-ps2 owner remember.

To heyhyhey, its debatable whether you would be objective but yeah u definitely fall into the more mature fanboys but unfortunately most posters here aren't like you they just want to trash the weakest console simply cos it doesn't ouput in hd. I like it that there variety in the consoles and that for once there is a reason to own them all to get a different experience from each one of them. I know i'm off topic but there .

[MK_Red]

Sidar, well I consider the revised / face lift more of a port. Okami on Wii is close to what I meant even though it is partially a revised remake.
Plus, reimagine and revised are really used a lot. Revised is more towards the port and reimagined is more like remake.

As for RE5, it depends:

If a single team makes a single version for all consoles (Wii version having motion controls for aiming like RE4 and PS3/360 ones having better graphics) then I'm against it because that would benefit neither console.
That same version for PS3, 360 and Wii means that it can't use advance gameplay technics like modern AI and physics systems and since it has to be played with analoges as well, it can't take full advantage of Wii's motion sensetive powers.

But if there are different versions, like Lucas Arts' Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, then I definitly support the game for all platforms. In case of that game, one team is making the PS3 and 360 versions which use Euphoria and DMM as core of gameplay with more focus on physical gameplay and force related stuff while a different team (Krome I think) is making the Wii version which is focused more on lightsaber using duels that takes great advantage of the Wii-mote as well has having a full fighting mode with many characters that can participate in sword fights that use Wii-mote.

Also, some times the core of a game prevents it from going to other systems. Look at Rayman Raving Rabbids. This game ROCKED on Wii but when it was ported to PS2 and 360, nobody bought and nobody liked it. The reason is that that game was MEANT for Wii. My Wii fave, Zack & Wiki is another example. Not only it was awesome but it brought life to the classic point and click adventure on a console by making superb use of Wii-mote.

Same goes for another Lucas Arts game, Fracture. A game that is coming only for PS3 and 360 because they whole point of this game is the advanced physics system working with terrain. Battlefield Bad Company is also the same. In that game, fully destructable enviroments that need processing power of PS3 and 360 are the whole point of the game.

So in case of RE5, it's not the time to decide because we know almost nothing about it.

Charlie2688, thanks for your help. I'll use the riot shield :)

---

Now where were we?! :)
Uh, Skies of Arcadia.
Lets hope whatever system SOA2 ends up, it takes full advantage of said console's strengths.

[ChickeyCantor]

" The reason is that that game was MEANT for Wii"
Wii actually supports all kind of controller setups.
However i understand that you would be saying: " if they are going to do a traditional Controller scheme then its best on PS3 and 360"
But you are the one also saying GFX arent everything.

I know that Physics based games could benefit more on a PS3 or 360, but from what i understand SOA can also be done on the DS or a PSP for that matter....its been there on the GCN and i see no reason why it would fail if it comes to the Wii.
Im not saying it shouldnt be on the PS3/360, the more the marrier but its also marketing; the game sold well on the GCN....so why not on the Wii? it seems the audience is there.

[MK_Red]

The thing is that I believe a game should come to a system only if it's meant to be.

If there is a PSP and DC version of a game, it must be light and good for on the go. Back then on GCN, there wasn't much difference between consoles.
We can always agree to disagree :)

[heyheyhey]

OMG!! IM so FREAKIN excited for...... what is it again?

[games4fun]

a dreamcast game that was later ported to gamecube it is one of my favorite RPG games i would put it in my top ten for the ammount of free roaming and first person view ability they added in there not to mention the battle system rivaled FFVII in terms of fun factor using that system

it was also a JRPG about being pirates (good pirates) and had an island where you could customize your own base/town also the main characters actually didn't have crazy spiked hairdos and were rather normal

AND as a later note YES!!! i hope this is a PS3 game as this was the only game for the wii i wanted i would love to have the sequel to one of my favorite RPG's from the dreamast THIS IS THE BEST NEWS I'VE HEARD ALL DAY forget killzone/gears this is an RPG i'd love to play the sequel to

i wonder how they will continue the story arc i'm thinking they'll go back further in time and get the Dracan guys storyline going that would be awesome :)

[vasilisk]

lol
my feelings exactly...

[urban bohemian]

But Skies of Arcadia Legends was better on the cube and reached a wider audience.

[JoelR]

I found the DC version better...especially loved VMU integration. Totally orginal. (to bad VMUs are gone from this generation ... well until someone figures out to use PSP for PS3 and DS for Wii as a VMU type device...)

[eagle21]

I am trying to figure out how I am going to get all the ones I want...lol

But the more the merrier. :)

[hay]

I would sooo love to play sequel. I have DC and GC versions and damn, give me more!

[heyheyhey]

wait a second, your NOT scheduling a japan-focused entry in a japan-focused franchise for a release on the Xbox 360??????

well thats just madness, *sigh* Sega make all the wrong decisions

[Blackcanary]

i could see it coming to the wii and then the PS3 Sega seem to be likeing the PS3 more now days still looking forward to that RPG from them whats it called again?

[heyheyhey]

are you looking for Fifth Phantom Saga? that PS3 exclusive RPG Sega is making?

[PirateThom]

I think he means Valkyria Chronicles

[Blackcanary]

Yeah thats the one that game looks bad ass lol

@ heyheyhey

love ur name man lol whats that the game ur talking about whats it about the name it self makes me want to know more?

[heyheyhey]

well you seem like a mighty nice guy so i took the trouble of looking up these links for you:

youtube videos of Fifth Phantom Saga for PS3:

http://youtube.com/results?...

IGN link:

http://uk.ps3.ign.com/objec...

enjoy!!

[BlackIceJoe]

I think this is great news a new Skies game will be great. Plus with it going on the Wii will show that there can be many great games on the Wii that are not just from Nintendo.

Also I hope the PS3 gets a port too so more people can get to play this great game because the first one was a really great game that to few people played.

[Blackcanary]

Ok so so fare i've heared of the PISSSTATION 3 and the 3fixme and the XF!CK 3SH!TME who thinks of these names lol its crazy are u guys really that bored to make these kind of names up.

O and i'm happy to hear that PS3 getting more support bring on FFXIII FF VERUS XIII KINGDOM HEARTS 3 and FFVII.

[heyheyhey]

that's it? those are the only names you've heard so far?

you need to spend more time on the internet sonny boy, much more time

[Blackcanary]

Yeap thats it so fare heyheyhey from what ur telling looks like i might have to digg around to see what the others are these names give me so much jokes lol.

[LaChance]

for jrpgs 360 is the way to go.nuff said.

[Blackcanary]

Can't see it happening dude sense the 360 isn't doing well in japan or hong kong thats the main reason why it doesn't get that many JRPGS.
The are so many out for the PS3 that are only out in japan its not even funny and that there are alot more PS3 in the UK now i'm hopeing that they start to bring them out in the uk.

[heyheyhey]

name ONE JRPG on the 360 that has sold over 500k, go on name it

the FACT is that:

PS3's install base in Japan= 2.1mil (with strong sales every month) vs 360= 0.6mil (and the sales have basically stopped, full stop- 6k a month might as well be 0 in this biz)

where will this game sell mostly? Japan and a bit in Europe (PS3 land too)

i hope you were joking and my response to you is moot, because i like you and i hope that's not actually how you see things

[Awesomeo3000]

as long as the ps3 gets a version thats all that matters too me if they make for wii and or 360 well good for them lol

[Fux4Bux]

Skies of Arcadia on Dreamcast is my favorite JRPG of all time. Hope 2 will be great but I seriously doubt it.

[Darkiewonder]

Game just needs to be announced. I may just go back and restart the game for GC as i don't have a clue what i have to do xD

[Kaz Hirai]

Awwwwww........no version for the PIGS!
Don't worry, PIGS- you still have Gears of Steroid-Abuse 2!

32 days until Judgment Day, Nazisoft!

MWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!

[Blackcanary]

Mr Kaz u give me so much Jokes keep on rocking.

[LaChance]

geez man , relax ! You be having bad day ?
Till this day 4 jrpgs have come to 360 and 1 for ps3.

Encharted arms : average game and didnt sell well on both ps3 and 360

Eteranal Sonata : good game but not GREAT. pretty much a flop.By the way this was a timed exclusive and it STILL isnt out on the ps3 yet and is only coming out in japan for the ps3. I bet it will be the same for Tales of vesperia cuz you guys saying its a timed exclusive.You guys wont be seeing it in a long long time.

Blue Dragon : according to MSFT it sold 500 000 copies. Dont forget the small installbase at that time.

Lost oddysey : been out for 2 months and 1/2 and is at 650 000 copies sold.The majority of the sales are in USA and EU which just shows you guys that there IS a market for JRPgs outside of Japan.

Coming up titles : infinite undicovery , Cry on , Tales of Vespearia ( if this is a times exlu then you guys aint seeing it any time soon just like Eternal Sonanta. ) , Star Ocean 4 might go multiplat.

I hope you see what I mean ?

By the way lost oddysey is selling as fast as Uncharted so its gonna hit the lillion mark quite fast and all that in USA and EU. Funny how JRPG can sell a million while beeing almost unexistant in japan.

You see there is a world outside of Japan.

As for the PS3 : No good JRPG out yet. FF coming out in 2009 , WKS looks okay but aint coming out anytime soon in the West.Star Ocean 4 is probably multiplat. And thats it for the PS3 ( im talking about officail stuff ). Not very exciting for a JRPG fan like myself.

And lets not get into the WRPGS...

I hope I anwswerd your question. Its not because fanboys on N4G say LO is a flop that it is. Its selling great and the next JRPGS are ceratainly gonna sell even more.
edit : the way man yooure probably the only sony fanboy I appreciate lol

@EAGLE21 : WKS looks good , not GREAT , To me LO looked good but not GREAT , Im taliking about the looks ONLY. At the end when finnaly plyed it I can safely say its a GREAT game.Lets wait and see for WKS.And I really dont give a DAMN about people like you opinion simply because I know if FF 13 was in 2d and black and white you would still act as if it was the messiah or something.

[BilI Gates]

You're an idiot.

Eternal Sonata is the only JRPG on 360 that even scored above 80% in overall reviews.

Blue Dragon flopped.
Lost Odyssey flopped.

And both sold like crap where they were supposed to be selling well, in Japan.

Mistwalker is garbage.

The only TRUE JRPG's that people care about this gen are exclusive to PS3.

Final Fantasy XIII
Final Fantasy Versus XIII
White Knight Chronicles
New Shin Megami Tensei game for PS3.

These are being developed by PROVEN developers, not overrated douche bags like Sakaguchi.

Can't wait for the PS3 version of Skies of Arcadia. Sega knows that it'll be a waste on 360.

[heyheyhey]

oh ok lol thats what you mean

and yes i agree, if your a JRPG gamer NOW- the 360 is the way to go

but if your a dev looking to sell a japan-focused game, you would just be wasting your time with a 360 port

LO sold well in USA/EU because it was marketed really well, and why? because MS had to get the message across that the 360 is for JRPG lovers too

Sega aren't great with marketing, and they'll most likely stick to focusing on Japan with this one

basically, White Knight Story has to come soon to get the ball rolling for Japan and JRPG's on the PS3 in general

oh yeah and we're getting FF13 and FFv13, which automatically makes every JRPG on 360 look like a tamagochi

and WKS/Valkyria Chronicles/SO4(probably will stay PS3 exclusive)/ Suikoden 6(come on, we know its happening)/Rogue Galaxy 2 (after Level 5 has finished with WKS)/Fifth Phantom Saga on top of that

oh and btw, sorry for snapping at you- i just felt like owning someone and your post seemed perfect

[pwnsause]

lachance, you're a foggot, shut up

[Angelitos]

They should release the first one on PSN!

[Angelitos]

Wow LaChance, wow.......

[eagle21]

From the phenomenal Level-5? There are tons of jrpg fans (me) but no one saw anything special in the ones he listed for "360".

White Knight Story will "pwn" Lost Odyssey.

And I am being nice. :)

[Obama]

He is not a jrpg fan, and noone in the right mind will choose 360 as their jrpg platform of choice. The fact is that almost all jrpg have flopped hard on the 360, namely blue dragon, and so many developers will avoid wasting their resources to develop jrpg on the 360 unless getting paid to do so.

[Doctor Strange]

I would rather this go to the PS3/360 so that Sega can harness something more powerful to work with.

Having the ship battles and stuff and the crew in HD would be sweet. I do think its coming to the PS3 with Vyse and Aika in Valkyria Chronicles although this doesn't mean its certain though.

I just glad if this is true that more Skies of Arcadia is on the way. Have for the Dreamcast and Cube so I definitely want more.

[Lumbo]

that might be the 2nd game to play on my Wii after Zelda ... If they can resist the urge to crappify the controls by forcing the darn wandwaving i detest.

If they announce it for PS3 ill skip the Wii version for that one.

[sumfood4u]

Why wouldn't part 2 be on the Wii? that's like Sony making Tekken 1-5DR, an deciding oh kay lets put Tekken 6 on XBOX~360 just because. it's not going to happen!

[Mike Bowden]

It didn't. It started out on the Dreamcast.

[games4fun]

it started out on the dreamcast and is owned ip from sega so it could go to any system it was ported to nintendo gamecube that is all so sega could port to anybody especially a game with a following who play on multiple consoles

it could be for every platform under the sun just as long as its also on ps3 so i dont have to envy wii owners (only game i want that the wii will have) and i'm being serious i was worried but if its multiplat i am happy

RAIN OF SWORDS !!!

[miked808]

Skies started out on the Dreamcast so screw the Wii and put it on a real system.

[BeNice]

yeah it started out on the dreamcast went to the gamecube and now its coming to the wii its logical. Graphical prowess or the lack of it does not change or make a gaming system. Anything that plays games and does it well is a gming system, the wii is simply not your console of choice snd you wish for your cnsole to receive it so that gamers who made the choice to own another console should not be able to have fun or enjoy a good game if it turns out to be one??

[miked808]

Well that kind of is the point isn't it to have a game you want on your console of choice. I have been waiting for years for the sequel and I'm not a graphics whore but I have no desire to wiggle and waggle my way through it.

[Noah]

Awesome, Skies of Arcadiais a really great RPG.can't wait to play it on my Wii or PS3.

[Rick Astley]

Xbox 360 doesn't deserve Skies of Arcadia 2. Sorry.

Only the mediocre JRPG's from Mistwalker should be on that system. True JRPG's developed by Square-Enix and Level-5 will remain exclusive to Japanese consoles.

[kewlkat007]

for their PS2 and never got to taste this game but it was one of the TOP 25 games for the Dreamcast.

Whichever console it comes to, I'm buying it. Happy 3 console Owner

I still believe the Xbox 360 is Dreamcast resurrected, because of the direction the Original Xbox went with its games and it's online infrastructure. Though, I thought at the time SEGA was running windows on them Dreamcast.

[NinjaRyu]

to think Sega Japan Hates the 360. So far sega have not been given any love to the 360 besides VF5Online. Yet the PS3 gets Valkyria Chronicles & Fifth Phantom Saga. At this rate I don't think sega japan will give us anymore 360 games at all. (at least not 360 only games)

[jackdoe]

Sega was Xbox exclusive in the beginning of last generation, Panzer Dragoon, Jet Set Radio, but that didn't help them much in terms of sales. I'm guessing that is why they are so PS3 supportive this gen.

Awesome glad another one is on the way. I'm getting a little fed up over the gamers who want the Wii to start getting games but then shun them and say those games should be on the others. Games don't automatically get better for being placed on PS3/360.

... I will crap my pants. Literally. Instantly. I am dead ****ing serious. Hell, if they make it for the XBox360 I will buy one, since I don't have one (yet).

Guess I must have an XBox 360 somewhere here that is just impossible to see, or I won't buy the remake/sequel/prequel to one of my favourite games of all time...

I still have and play Skies on DC and GCN, and a Wii version would be great. SEGA wants this game to sell and why wouldn't they put it on the #1 gaming console?

I can wait for WKS and FF XIII on PS3, but Tales and Skies 2 are gonna be killer on Wii.

Wii is getting major RPG support!

Hope sega show it a E3!

Id love for it to come to Wii :) i had the original on DC and on GC

Its weird how they are taking so long to announce a game many people want.. instead they make crap like ironman.

I wont lie I am hoping that it will come to the PS3 because quite frankly I have no interest in the Wii, I was just never able to get into it, the only game right now that I would even be interested in getting is The Legend of Zelda but I already have it for the Gamecube.

I just don't have the interest in jumping around and waggling my hand to do something in a videogame, maybe thats because i'm older now who knows, so with any luck i'll get my wish, than again maybe Duke Nukem Forever will come out within the next 50 years...

I loved this game and if they release a #2, I will have it day one.
