NVM... The last thing I got to say, is that this thread has existed for 3 days, and already has half as many pages as threads that have been around for months.
There's no demand? Granted I probably made half of these posts, but I really got to abandon the thread now. I can't stand the ignorance.
The thread started with someone complaining they would be able to play Final Fantasy XV because he didn't want to buy a PS4 or a Xbox One.
It led turned into why FF13 was a terrible game. Then the decline of FF. Then the story of FF13. Then someone decided to talk about 8th gen system and game porting.
Then we came to page 13 and yeah. No demand.
Thanks for letting me know you were abandoning this thread though. I'll be able to sleep soundly tonight.

"Gosh, this Hope kid sure has it rough. I hope he turns out OK."
-No one
You have no soul. The dude lost his parents and is basically thrust into an extreme situation he has no control over with a bunch of strangers. You'd think the guy could be forgiven for being rather upset.
Nah. I'm not giving them points for trying. Angsty teenager doesn't automatically equal good character.

And angsty doesn't automatically make them a bad character either.

Why do you insist on making things up? You keep saying there is no demand, but there is demand. There is CLEARLY demand. I have PROVEN TIME AND TIME AGAIN that there is demand. But has anyone presented a plausible argument that there isn't demand? NO! It's this complete ignorance to the truth that made SCAR392 abandon this thread. And as for your last comment, I can't tell if you are saying that you are grateful you don't have to keep checking this forum, or if you are just being a jerk.
@Origami You have most certainly not proven there is adequate demand at all. @SCAR389 also didn't abandon the thread because others were ignorant to the truth.
Considering that it will be out for the PS4 and Xbox One, that's not going to happen.
Xbox One and PS4 getting FFXV, doesn't justify its absence on Wii U.
Is this really that hard to understand? Come on guys.
Considering the fact that these consoles are more powerful than the Wii U, I say it does. Ports rarely work.
Ports are usually effective in providing the same experience across all consoles. A graphical downgrade means nothing to the gameplay and story.
There's more than a graphical downgrade that can occur. It can definitely affect the gameplay. Games are designed around a certain amount of power, having less can mess up the experience or make it not even possible.

yeah they might have to reduce areas, remove content, make some objects movements more limited, make the AI dumber, all that would spoil the gameplay. I'd rather have a WiiU exclusive spinoff Final Fantasy

The only downsides I've seen in ports (even to inferior consoles) are graphical downgrade, more glitches, and occasional frame rate issues. I feel it's worth it.

@oragami have you ever played a Wii or DS port? they're completely different games from the original platforms.

That might be because most of the time when a game would have to sacrifice a lot to make a port they simply don't make the port.

You may not want to believe that FFXV might really suffer from Wii U's lack of power, but that's the truth. Denying it won't change anything. The power difference is definitely enough for this to happen.

I got an email about this response, so I have returned. You can't speak in my stead, fool.
I've already posted proof multiple times, that any loss would be minimal, if at all, on the software. Wii U has specs that are equal to DX11, which is how they're building the game, then porting it based on specs. This throws the whole incompatibility argument out of the window.
I know that PS4 is a powerful console, but it won't effect how games like this will turn out. PS4 literally has nothing to do with how multiplats will be. The exact same thing as last gen with PS3 getting Xbox 360 ports. Sony IPs and a few exclusives will be catered to PS4, but nothing else, so get over it.
EDIT: You're denying that the game can run on Wii U.
@oragami have you ever played a Wii or DS port? they're completely different games from the original platforms.
Wii Ports' only differences are the ones I've already mentioned and the addition of pointer and motion controls, and you're right on DS ports, but the difference in power between PS4/Xbox One and Wii U is not nearly as drastic as PS3 and DS.

I researched examples of ports. I mentioned them earlier, and they are definitely ports.

Then prove there are millions of Wii U owning Final Fantasy fans out there.
Don't forget to have fun.
Prove there aren't. There were many Wii and GameCube owning Final Fantasy fans, and it was said that Wii U owners were very loyal to Nintendo, as were GameCube owners, and Crystal Chronicles sold 1.38 million copies. That was for a BRAND NEW GAME. Bringing FFXV would be a PORT, which is cheaper to produce than a BRAND NEW GAME. The Virtual Console Final Fantasy games were also bestsellers, so there is a current demand among Nintendo fans, as the Virtual Console was used mostly by Nintendo Loyalists.

The Wii version of The Force Unleashed 2, NES: Hot Pursuit, and Transformers: War for Cybertron are all completely different from the PS360 version. Look them up, all completely different games.
