The original Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles on Nintendo’s Gamecube was met with mixed reviews from fans. While some applauded it, a vast majority found Square Enix’s adventure game to be a big pile of sugary lizard spunk. That hasn’t kept the Final Fantasy powerhouse from pressing onward, first with a DS sequel , now with a brand new console version in the works. Due for the Wii is the abhorrently named Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers, and you can view the trailer right here .
As far as actual gameplay footage goes, we’re shown very little. About two second’s worth of it, in fact, but it looks like this will still be a damn pretty Wii game. That said, I’m not convinced this is making the most of the hardware, which surprises me, being from Square Enix. It looks firmly like a PlayStation 2 title, and we all know the Wii can do better than that. Well … we’re led to believe it can.
That aside, I’m looking forward to seeing what Square Enix can bring to the Wii. Here’s hoping it’s a fun, original game on a system that really, really needs more of them.
