No offense but that would rock for me.  Especially if its for the Wii or PC.  My PS2 died and I don't see a reason to replace it till they become cheap which might be never.

Final Fantasy (I)-VI were originally on Nintendo consoles, VII and VIII are on PC, and XI is on PC and XBox 360.

Meaning that of the twelve main FFs, only IX, X, and XII are exclusive to PlayStations, and most PSX fanboys I know didn't like IX that much (I enjoyed it, myself).  So if they disregard that one game then there are only two PSX FFs...and FF XII only just came out, yet the notion of PSXes being the home of FFs have been around for a while.  Three out of twelve?  That's a measly one out of four.

Strictly based on that track record, if Square-Enix even briefly considers to porting FF XII and/or XIII, I see no reason why they wouldn't.

Both of these were rumored to be delayed some time ago, I believe it was posted in this thread too.

Wow, is that really the launch list?  What a yawn-fest.

Still surprised somewhat that Rayman: Raving Rabbids is on anything other than the Wii, since the Wii version is hyped so much.  That said, that's probably the best thing on the PS3 launch list, which I would prefer the Wii version of.  I haven't played Guitar Hero, but I've heard lots of good things about it, so II can't be TOO bad (wait...isn't II supposed to be on the PS2?), but still, overall, the PS3 has a lackluster launch going on there.

After removing titles the two shared, as well as similar projects (tony hawk games, tom clancy games), and games that were spawned from T.V shows, or movies, this is what we're left with.
Honestly, there are only a few titles that save the Wii launch lineup, granted one of those is Zelda: TP, but still, the lineup kind of sucks on both fronts, tons of racers, shooters, and sports games.

If the Wii didn't have it's controller there would be no point. Good job Nintendo.

Umm, Rayman isn't launching on the PS3. In fact, it may never grace the PS3 at all.

Ubi made it quite clear that they wanted to focus on the Wii version before any other with other console versions left at "TBA".

Ok, how come there are TWO Banco titles on the PS3 launch list and 0 on the Wii launch list and yet Nintendo claims to own stock in Banco?

Um, people keep talking about Ninty's stock in Bandai as if it means something...Ninty only bought shares for more personal reasons, not to get games...

(And Ninty's stock in Bandai shrunk when Namco and Bandai merged anyway...)

Yeah somewhere else on the forum a while ago mentioned that Nintendo is in the art of making money and actually invest a lot of that money.  It's not sitting in a bank its probably working for them.  It's a good idea for them to buy stock and help the industry.  Though I wouldn't be surprised to find that Nintendo owned stock in some completely unrelated industry.  Probably Sony and Microsoft as well.

It does mean SOMETHING: it means they hold some voting sway over Banco.

I'm not expecting mountains of Banco support, but I would think that holding that stock would mean Banco at least wouldn't invariably support their competitors in most cases, like with a whopping 0 Wii launch titles.

I'm somewhat surprised too, but bear in mind that:
a) Nintendo doesn't necessarilly have enough to have a huge say
b) Projects such as the rumoured Namco RPGs may still be a year or more away from completion.

It seems like they intentionally avoid supporting Nintendo so as to prove that they're not allowing the stock ownership to play a role in decisions.

As for RPGs, if it's more Baiten Kaitos or Tales games, then *yawn*.

Nintendo has been getting more and better games out of Square lately and they didn't even need to own any stock in the company.

Tales wasn't so bad, but the ho-hum cliche story and characters were only forgiven by the kickass multiplayer fighting engine.
