New Final Fantasy Game Coming To Wii and DS

Posted by Soulskill on from the sharing-fantasies dept.

Eurogamer reports on some good news for fans of the Final Fantasy series: a new game is in development for the Nintendo Wii and DS systems. "It's said to be titled Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time. ... the game will apparently be playable on both machines at once, thanks to the spiffing new Pollux engine. So, while whoever is the best negotiator/fighter/Wii owner is playing on the big screen, another lucky adventurer can wade in on the DS, presumably following around and summoning Ifrit on their elder siblings. This harks back to the series' origins on DS, with the first CC game enjoying the relative splendour of Gamecube/GBA link-up play."

    What can I say? I strive to make the very best.

    Not that I'm a Final Fantasy fan anymore -- I grew out of that phase during Final Fantasy III/6j -- but I still feel obliged to say...

    SUCK IT.

    I don't think those are Miis. I think they are in-game creations loosely based on Miis. That's probably why they look so funky, (Blue hair and all.)

    The fact the word Mii is written right on top of them makes me suspicious that at least one is a Mii.
