Theatrhythm Final Fantasy gets a...teaser site?
Click Here to View Story

I don't know what's going on here, but for whatever reason, Square-Enix has opened up a new teaser site for Theatrhythm Final Fantasy. Could this be to promote an eShop version of the game? Will there be a sequel? Is the game receiving a port to another platform?

I'd love an eshop version that costs $15, which is about as much as I want to pay for the game. $40 for any rhythm game is too much.

Someone's never played Rhythm Heaven Fever

The game is easily worth 40 bucks, especially considering the stylus it comes with

... If they port this like they did with TWEWY I'm going to swear off Squeenix.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what's going to happen.

Don't tell me that. =(

Does anyone recognize that song (if it's a song) that it's playing? I just think that it's hinting something.

My guess is a port too, sadly. Seems everything DS related is hitting iOS, so 3DS can't be far off...

by **Light_Wolf** » 10 Dec 2012 02:33

Yeah, knowing Square Enix it's probably just an iOS port.

by **nicetoknovvyou** » 10 Dec 2012 02:39

i agree. it's gonna get ported to iOS

by **Pichu2010** » 10 Dec 2012 02:41

iOS ports make sense for rhythm games though. Not saying I like this practice, but it's better than porting Vice City or something. >_>

I'd love to see them make another Theatrhythm game, but with another series. Heck, I think Kingdom Hearts would be a nice fit for it! Even if there were only...

...How many games? 7?

Deal with it now rather than later.

@YF3
I'd like a Theatrhythm of Mana!

They love porting DS and 3ds games to ios. It would be nice to see some PSP games being ported to other places, lets say the 3ds...

Would love to see more DLC songs because I bought every single DLC song since I loved the game and music so much! The only flaw is that you cannot play the DLC songs in the music/jukebox player, you can only play the song via challenge mode which is a damn shame since all the songs that were already in the game can be played via music/jukebox player.

It's Theathrythm for iOS. Obvious teaser is obvious.

I don't even want to imagine how that handles. I hate complete touch screens and that's just for navigating through my phone menu's. Even then rhythm games definitely seem like a magical fit for touch screen only devices.

@NightsOwl

I don't even understand why someone would be upset by this.

Instead of wasting their time with a port they could be working on something new. If people want the game, get it for 3DS. There's no need to port it now of all times. x_x

I would like to see some kind of Theatrhythm Dragon Quest.

I'm pretty sure it's Theatrhythm Final Fantasy for iOS/Android/whatever.

What you need to realize is companies usually use smaller studios to produce these ports, while main studios worry about sequels and such. So if there's a sequel in the works, don't worry, it's not being hindered by this port at all.

Also, this isn't a system seller game. If people wanted to play this, they wouldn't get the 3DS just for one game, so it makes sense to port it to iOS. The 3DS is enjoying good sales now, people can stop getting defensive about ports going to other platforms. This is how the industry works, and if more people can enjoy games, hey, awesome.

Here we go again with the Squeenix game that gets ported to iOS only to have people complain that it costs $20 and the flood of news article complaining that Squeenix's pricing model is broken...
