I was just at gamecube europe and they ran a story on a rumoured ff game. Visit their site for the info and link to a picture. Basically Vjump (of Never Happening rumour fame) is goin to shed some light on the game in their next issue. On the link on their site, they show a picture of a teaser wit the title Final Fantasy: Guilty Wing and at the bottom there is text where you can see ps2 and gcn. If this is all true, its basically a definite we getting another ff on gamecube. What do you think this game could be like. Ive read that it could be a ff game combining some of the themes of ff 7-9 but I aint sure what that means lol. Aint sure why gamecube europe is the only site that Ive found thats running the romour given that theirs a link with some info to go by.

Final Fantasy: Guilty Wing.

Now there's an unattractive name.

now there's an unnatractive post.

oh a 'traditional' FF on the cube? cool i guess, but doesn't really pique my interest, unless it's about Pirates

I just wish there was some truth to that, but the chance is so slim...

Here's the link to the Cube Europe article.

The bar at the bottom is pretty easy to translate, even if you don't know any Japanese, because it's using extremely-well-known words.

It clearly says "Kingdom Hearts 2 PS2 - GCN Final Fantasy A.C- DVD".

The "A.C" obviously means "Advent Children", the new movie-sequel to FF7.

So I think it's saying that KH2 is on both the PS2 and Cube (instead of PS2-exclusive, as was previously reported/assumed), and FF:AC is on DVD (which we already knew).

The bottom line with "GCN" doesn't seem to have anything to do with this "FF: Guilty Wing" that was just mentioned.

Very good pickup rudy_onix!

I know a little Japanese myself too.

This doesn't 100% confirm that Kingdom Hearts 2 is coming to GC (until we get an announcement from Sqare-Enix themselves that is), but I'm wondering, isn't it a direct sequel to the first game, and needs to be played to know the story?

ruby_onix · « **Reply #7 on:** March 20, 2004, 02:42:15 AM »

I haven't played Kingdom Hearts myself, so I don't know how much you may need to have played the first one.

The ony thing I know about the plot is that some people have said that it stole it's plot idea from the "Revolutionary Girl Utena" anime movie (the movie, not the TV series). So... umm... yeah. If you've seen the movie, that might say a lot. If not... well... I don't think I could describe it. So don't ask...

This link from RPGFan seems helpful.

I've seen one of my friends play Kingdom Hearts and it looked pretty sweet. I'd be more excited about that sequel on the Cube than another Final Fantasy game.

Pale · « **Reply #9 on:** March 20, 2004, 03:21:46 AM »

Wait, if nintendo can take away sony's exclusivity on a game like Kingdom Hearts, this is HUGE news. Remember that article a while back that said Square Enix whats the KH franchise to be one of their pillars? This is almost as big as if FF XII was annouced for GCN as well. I'm excited if this is true.

The pic of the big guy in inverted colours seems to be the Squall from Final Fantasy 8.
Perhaps Final Fantasy: Guilty Wing is Final Fantasy XIII-2?

Final Fantasy XIII-2? That's thirteen-two, not eight-two. I assume you meant Final Fantasy VIII-2.

Anyway, Kingdom Hearts 2 would be a good title for the GameCube to have. I remember there were rumours of a port of the original, but the developer said that he didn't want to put Kingdom Hearts on the GameCube just because it featured 'kiddy' characters. He noted that everyone was expecting him to do it for that reason alone, and he didn't want to play up to the stereotype that games that are seen as 'kiddy' always appear on the GameCube.

However, if this rumour turns out to be true, I'll be the first in line to buy it for the Cube. The original is an excellent game.

Thanks for that!

Good lord. I hope not, and it seems unlikely. I tried out the FF8 demo, and hated it.

keep in mind next month's issue will be the april 1st issue...

I hate how Final Fantasy games end up, but I wouldn't mind Kingdom Hearts...

Mannypon · « **Reply #15 on:** March 20, 2004, 07:29:42 AM »

dam thats a buzz kill, I wasnt a big fan of the first kindom hearts gameplay. The fightin felt a little stiff. I still think squareenix and nintendo should team up again to do another mario rpg. I was a big fan of the original. Still wondering what the ff guilty wing is. My guess, judging by the title, that it could be the action game I heard of with ff characters such as cloud. The title sounds more like an action game title moreso than an anime.

PaLaDiN · « **Reply #16 on:** March 20, 2004, 10:18:39 AM »

Call me a cynic, but I'm pretty sure this is fake.

I don't think Japan uses "GCN"... they just use "GC".

What I heard anyway.

Draygaia · « **Reply #17 on:** March 20, 2004, 01:48:58 PM »

I wouldn't mind another Final Fantasy. I don't see where you guys have this dislike towards the Final Fantasy series. I like them better than most console RPGs out there. Skies of Arcadia was kinda well not as interesting as any Final Fantasy.

The fighting wasn't very deep and does need some polish. Thats what sequels are for!

Anyway, I'm so psyched about KH2 and KHCoM that I can't even stand it. Being able to play it with the greatest controller ever would just be icing on the cake.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #19 on:** March 20, 2004, 05:57:42 PM »

Even if it was just the sequel, sequels are designed in a way so you can play them without having played the first part and won't miss out more than a few references. Considering how many Disney games appeared on the Gamecube, maybe Disney applied some pressure?

That Guilty Wing is either a joke or a special feature, I doubt it's a real game. Even if, it'd fit in with the orange blob on the right (something about PS2, PC and online, probably FF11). If you ask me, that "Guilty Wing" is probably a comic they made using FF11 and print only in their own magazine (therefore "only for"). Or maybe they're making an online cometition or something.

But then again...

I was bored and tried to translate some of the purple stuff near the bottom.

The first two lines say "fu a i na ru fu a n to shi-" (Final Fantasy)
...and "gi ru te i- u i n gu !" (Guilty Wing!).

I don't know what the four Chineese symbols mean.

The last line is "ge- mu kyu- bu" (GameCube).

Edit: The red part to the right of the logo says "Sugoi!" (Japanese for "Wow!")

ruby_onix · « **Reply #21 on:** March 20, 2004, 09:21:22 PM »

GameCube Heaven has more stuff translated than I've been able to manage.

The top big-letter stuff is "Next Issue" and "Exclusive News".

The Chineese symbols under the logo that I couldn't translate say "Fully Loaded Information".

I still don't know what the stuff on the right says, but it obviously has something to do with the PS2, the Network Adaptor, and a PC version. Most likely some sort of large article about FFXI. Probably not breaking news, or anything we really need to hold our breath until the next issue for.

Edit: I just noticed that I've been spelling "Chinese" wrong. Sorry about that.

Deguello · « **Reply #22 on:** March 20, 2004, 11:38:32 PM »

Kingdom Hearts 2 looks ok. The first Kingdom Hearts I sorta liked, but I still ended up hating the game every time I play it. It's not the Disney stuff. The whole "romp through Disneyworld" is actually kinda neat. It's the fact that I can't play for 10 minutes without seeing some lame Final Fantasy cameo that bothers me. Hell "cameo" is putting it mildly, as it seems they are integral characters. These FF people, whether they died in their respective games or not, totally disjoint the game. It makes the general plot read like a Yahoo! Groups fanfic. And I hate fanfics.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #23 on:** March 21, 2004, 02:28:22 AM »

ruby: Now that sounds a lot more interesting. The whole logo was probably a mock up to fill the space, then.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #24 on:** March 21, 2004, 06:34:17 AM »

"The game will be titled Final Fantasy: Guilty Wing and is planned as a GameCube exclusive. It is being developed by Game Designer's Studio and is said to follow the more traditional style of Final Fantasy games that most all fans have grown to love.

On another note, Final Fantasy: Guilty Wing takes "inspirations" from Final Fantasy 7-9, and Squall Leonheart from FF8 will be the main character. "

GCA

Meh...I can't stand FFVIII... ;___;
