Nomura ended up putting Kingdom Hearts on the PS2 because it had an enormously larger userbase than that of the GC.  It was all about where he could have earned the largest profit.

I would like to see a linking KH Collection on Wii with updated Graphics, bug ironings, and continual play.  You start with Kingdom of Hearts beat that, go straight into Chain of Memory beat that, then go straight into Kingdom of Hearts 2 beat that and get a definitive trailer for the next one with a save file to give you some special item.

That would be great even though I hate Chain of Memory's combat system but I want to know the story so it can fill in some of the holes in KH2.

so, I don't have to edit as Much.

Parasite Eve is not an original franchise, it was based on a book which was also made into a movie in 1997, a year before Square released their game:

I remember when they were talking about a Hollywood Parasite Eve movie that might have starred Madonna in the role of Eve.

Some of those Enix games would be neat.  ActRaiser, Robotrek...

Who was Quintet?  A separate company or part of Enix?  They worked with Enix a few times.  *goes to Wikipedia*

According to Wikipedia, Quintet developed these games:

ActRaiser
Soul Blazer
ActRaiser 2
Illusion of Gaia
Robotrek
Terranigma

Solo Crisis
Code R
Planet Laika (co-developed with Zeque)
Granstream Saga
Simple 1500 Series vol.78 The Zeroyon
Godzilla Generations

The bolded ones are the Super NES ones, as well as ones that I heard of.  I didn't hear about any of their later games.  It'd be nice if Enix could scrape up the rights to them.

Man, Soul Blazer, Illusion Of Gaia, and Terranigma...so similar, those three.  But they were good.

Actraiser was awesome! And Soul Blazer wasn't bad either.
Ah the SNES memories...

They should sell the Quintet franchise to Nintendo. They can keep KH and Mana, all I want is more Terranigma goodness.

I want another Hameln game. The SNES one was an awesome puzzle jump and run.
