Ben Salter of MMGN: The World Ends With You is a fantastic game from 2008 that never amassed more than a dedicated cult following. Today it is re-released on iOS devices for $18-20. That’s great, and I hope it prospers with a new-found audience four years later, but I won’t be buying it.
Those with fond memories of the original The World Ends with You shouldn't sleep on the Nintendo Switch remaster, Final Mix, before tackling NEO.
With Square Enix making sequel after sequel on most of its other franchises, it's easy to assume that The World Ends With You will Someday get the Calling.
TTP:" Earlier this week we have reported that The World Ends With You: Solo Remix, the role playing game developed by Square Enix, is no longer available for purchase on the App Store. Unfortunately, it looks like it will never become available again, as Square Enix has announced today on its support page that the game has been discontinued."
I'm pretty sure this port are for people who didn't get to experience it on the DS.
I can and can't see the dilemma here. If you see a game you already own and are a bit annoyed at it being re-released in a different format then just don't buy it. I did get the urge to pick up the PC version of FFVII, but I just went back and played my PS1 copy instead.
