HUAHUAH DAY OF CELL PHONE MEGABOMB CONTINUES!
I think Japan needs another nuke recharge to cure how shitty their wackiness has gotten.
-
between cell phones and the wii, japan gaming is ruined :gloomy
-
:lol
Why would anyone that likes portable gaming play that?
-
Dead Rising 2 where?!!?
Dead Rising is my favorite 360 game :)
-
lol TVC.
There is also Assassin's Creed and Lost Planet cell phone games.
but the difference between this and Square is...they ain't fucking with the main game.

Some of us fell for this

And cell phones are now the hated enemy after the Square Lie.
-
Square wants money, they are the new Capcom, deal with it.
and i don't go to the "sections page" much, not my problem!

Anyone that contributes money to cell phone gaming is part of the problem. Fuck etoilet's idiocy, this is what will kill gaming.
-
I wouldn't worry about cell phone myself.
Wii/waggle on the other hand...
-
Wii waggle isn't responsible for FF4 Sequel on cell phones. Wii waggle is not responsible for EA making more money on cell phones than on next gen consoles. Cell phones are the enemy.

It's just the PS3.
Wii waggle isn't responsible for FF4 Sequel on cell phones.
well, i blame FF7, it started with it, remember that Before Crisis cell phone game? now it's expanding, from FF4, FF13 and soon all FFs, also Parasite Eve 3.
and cell phones aren't the enemy, Square is.
-
No, cell phones are. Cell phones are hurtning even Nintendo, the person you declared the enemy.
(Sorry about misquoting the EA thin. . .it's still bad news)
Waggle is what it is. Cell phone gaming is shitty, but it is very attractive to developers that can otehrwise be making good games. it offers margins console games can't even dream of. Cell phone gaming gaining popularity means developers will increasingly turn to a casual market so casual that Nintendo is grossed out by it.
-
Zombies ate my neighbors 2
Id play that on a cellphone
-
(Sorry about misquoting the EA thin. . .it's still bad news)
it's awright.
hmm...cellphones, it's really getting big in Japan.
i won't be surprised to see NDS/PSP with cell phone capabilities.
-

Which is another reason it's so bad. These Japanese only cell phones ensure that the western market will be CUT OFF from many of these games, in the off chance they do turn out well.
PS3 and 360 are dead in Japan. The Wii is terrible. Developers can turn quick bucks, many, many quick bucks, on cell phone games. You hear people bitch about development costs, and margins. Cell phones are the best in both regards there.
The popularity of cell phone gaming, in short, makes a climate where developing games for consoles and handhelds makes little sense for developers.
But we'll see how things turn out in 5 years. There's nobody that would like to be as wrong about this as myself, but the signs of the past 2 and 3 years. . .much more worrying to me than waggle success.
-
Kind of reminds me of like Turbo stuff. Without it being big here, many Japas just didn't bother. And it's gonna happen all over again.
but i find it hard to believe cell phone games is a sweeter pot than ds.
-

So do I, so do I. DS means worldwide release and all that. But I just can't understand why FF4 is on DS, but the SEQUEL is a cell exclusive. . .

Perhaps they are testing the market?

Square's been in the cell phone market for a while. They have the new Parasite Eve game, and don't forget Before Crisis. And Tobal. And there's a Kingdom Hearts one (with a second one coming out, looks like). I think they are beyond the testing phase.
-
But if this sells, they will make FF5/6 exclusive cell phone sequels as well.
perhaps they are only testing with the old FF games? (before crisis was with the ff7 compilation stuff, so it doesn't matter)

I don't see how any of that is comforting news. The old Square games are the ones that I, and other current jaded ex-Square fans, give a fuck about.
-
It's not comforting, but it's business lol.
just pray this FF4 mobile shit bombs hard.

Also, take note of what you just said:

beyond testing indeed, time to move with their biggest franchise, FF.
-
Like I said, all evidence points towards BAD NEWS for the future of gaming in general. I hope I am wrong.
-
Square and Capcom seem to be shitting out more console games than cell phone games though.

Maybe Capcom, but has Square even released a single, real next gen game?
-
Now imagine having a real life Otis impersonator calling you on your phone every 5 seconds while you play DR Mobile. :P
-
dead rising does not do anything which could reasonably be construed as suck, and thus to make it suck moar would be A TRIFLING ACHIEVEMENT INDEED
lol there's an uncharted commercial going on as i type this gj sony

Square always takes a while to get going on next-gen consoles though.
Did I mention Square sucks today yet? If not, Square sucks!
-
they still haven't really gotten going on ps2
how bout that vagrant story, though
-
I'll give them Tobal 2 and Einheinder. That's about it.
-
pursuing my theme of irrelevant comments on game commercials, GODDAMN DOES COD4 LOOK HOT IN CAMPAIGN SNIPPETS
shame about the way it actually plays lol

What's wrong with the way it plays? I have seen allusions to it not playing that great, but what's the issue aside from campaign length?
-
the length is fine. the problem is bizarre spawning behavior that makes actually shooting people seem nearly futile -- too often you're just running for checkpoints that magically stop the spawning. sound and fury signifying nothing
-
The profit margin is a lot higher for a cell phone game isn't it?
-
Dead Rising 2 is going to be on Wii and I'm not even lying.

I have a feeling that Dead Rising 2 is going to be for everything. Capcom hasn't officially anounced a sequel, but they refer to DR as a franchise.
