FFIV Remake Trailer

[atlanteay]

Can't believe no one's posted this yet.

The SQEX-Party`07 trailer for the new DS remake of Final Fantasy IV is now up and running at the game's official site, and it is pretty. For now, it's only CG scenes of the new version of the game, but it's still very impressive.


check it : HERE (http://www.square-enix.co.jp/ff4ds/)
then the SQEX-Party button which is blue and then aqua as its rollover

again, they only show the CG rather than gameplay ><

[Elpizo]

It has been posted in the "Let it be a rumor SE! Just let it be a rumor!" topic, which is where I keep most of the FF IV DS remake news.

ahh.. no wonder ><;; my bad but I guess it won't hurt to have a more noticeable announcement.

[Sephex]

I noticed it in the other thread, but I think this thread should stay. I got to watch it for the first time just now.

OH. MY. ****ING. GOD.

FINAL FANTASY IV REMAKE DS. not a port, the 'complete' ffiv since a third of the story was cut from the snes :mog: . crikey im excited :mog:

[Evastio]

That trailer is awesome. :D

I can't wait for FFIV DS to come out.

[Ultima Shadow]

Holy :skull::skull::skull::skull:! First time I saw this. MUST... HAVE... THIS... GAME!!!

Too bad there's no Rydia in the trailer.

[atlanteay]

^they better make rydia look good. she was such a cool character. WAY better than rosa =P

it says Coming 2007 at the end didn't it? (or my mind is acting up, either one)

[Orophin]

it says Coming 2007 at the end didn't it? (or my mind is acting up, either one)

It does, but it's for Japan.

[lufia]

i speculate it will be out for us in the year 2008 :choc2: ...yes..yes it will :mog:

[scrumpleberry]

It looks fantastic.

God, I love the CG, it fits it perfectly :).

[KasaiDraco]

Maybe the DS emulator'll work then and I can download the game along with 3!

[Hazzard]

Lovin' Kain. He looks so bitter and resentful. Cecil better watch his backside, instead of Rosa's!

[lufia]

this will be the greatest game for the ds, that is my perfect deduction ;)

[Sefie1999AD]

The trailer wasn't actually too bad. So will this remake have FMV sequences and voice acting? A problem I have with this remake is that I don't have a DS console myself.

[Marluxiaswife]

AHHHHH I can't wait! i'm playing the old verison right now :X
please let it come out this year! i so so so soy so so want to play it! :) I have a DS and its ready for me to play that silly game! Rosa is my fav character from that game seen i was younger.

And the guy talking...sounds filmair..... i can't put my finger on it *thinks*

[Treasure Hunter Locke]

At first, I was glad when this was announced but after watching the trailer and reading on some information about the DS version. Now I can't wait for this! I think it will be amazing, hopefully. :)

[Zeromus_X]

Rosa: Cecil, I heard that the Red Wings are going on an expedition.

Cecil: Yeah.

Rosa: To where?

Cecil: Mysidia.

Rosa: Mysidia? Why to that wizard's village?

Cecil: His majesty's order was to safeguard the crystal of water.

Airships: the flying ships of which the people dreamed.

But that technology is capable of going beyond the fulfillment of dreams, and becoming a means of fulfilling ambitions.

The kingdom of Baron became the world's greatest millitary state through the "Red Wings" airship force.

Why did King Baron, posessor of unmatched power, seek the crystals?

Cecil: Why are the crystals necessary for the prosperity of our kingdom?

Rosa: You aren't that sort of person.

Cecil: I stole the crystal from the Mysidians, from people who had committed no crime. This is exactly the image of the Dark Knight - I am stained by it's darkness. My... heart is...

The 4th fantasy -- Now, the truth can be revealed.

Rosa: Cecil of the Red Wings would never give up like this. The Cecil I love...

So yes, I can't wait.

[Laddy]

That's not a bad trailer, I can't wait!

[Jessweeee♪]

Whoa...that's gonna be on the DS...OMG....

[KasaiDraco]

i'm so downloading that game for the ds emulator that will be able to support it then. i have ff3 for ds on my computer, but that emulator shows promise.

The fact that they "remade" Final Fantasy III, is the very reason it will never be released in America. It should have come with the Final Fantasy Chronicles or Final Fantasy Origins remade to 16 bit, but no. They had to remake the whole game and ruin it. So, I'll never get a chance to play Final Fantasy III.

When I heard they were doing this with Final Fantasy IV, my first reaction was, "Oh, hell no." But now, I think, "At least they released Final Fantasy Chronicles first or the best Final Fantasy IV we'd have in America would be EasyType on the SNES. I'm not a big fan of taking classic NES and SNES games and remaking them to look like PS and PS2 games. It just ruins it, and in my opinion, makes it a completely different game. Give the game a facelift? Fine. I liked Final Fantasy Origins. Remake the whole thing with 3-D technology basically changing the whole thing? Not just no, but hell no. 'Course that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.

Besides, you should release games on a system that matters. You know. One that plugs into your TV.

Since when did SE ruin III DS? All I remember is playing a wonderful remake of the greatest NES game ever. And TV-consoles the only game consoles that matter? Yeah right, that's why the DS is getting so much support. Gee, people say really stupid things these days.

Stop being ignorant. III is released in America and Europe on the DS. Yes DS. Hope that didn't give you a heart attack. So stop ignoring facts just because it isn't on a TV-console. If you so much hate the DS remake, play the translated NES ROM.

Indeed, 3D makes the game feel very different, which is just what we need. Or what? Another port with some prettier graphics like FF I and II on PSP? Indeed this is a different game than FF IV. This is the New Final Fantasy IV, as stated by the developpers. Complete with 75% of the original script that was cut out from the SNES version and all later ports, new song and voice acting. Possibly the greatest version of IV today, without loading times or GBA glitches.

Lend me your time-machine. I want to go to the future and play this game like you did, so I can see just how FF IV DS will be ruined.

Honestly, what do people, heck no, gamers want? If SE ports a game, they are money whores. If they remake it, people like you start complaining. Tell me, when can SE finally do something that nobody complains about? XII is teared appart, New IV DS is ripped to shreds, XIII is plagued with 360 fanboys yelling that PS3 sucks and that XIII will go multiplatform. FFTA2 is :skull::skull::skull::skull:ted upon by angry FFT fann00bs, CC Ring of Fates by main-stream fanboys that bash CC like their lives depend on it, The Crystal Bearers is hated by CC-faboys that whine that it doesn't look anything like the original CC (they just wnat more of the same), Versus XIII is hated because it's main character looks like Sasuke and looks emo, III DS is getting bashed because it is Final Fantasy III and not Final Fantasy XIV, Revenant Wings is getting hammered by XII-fanboys that don't want to play an "OMG KIDIEZ!!!" game and PSP fanboys whine that it should be on PSP instead of DS. Dissidia FF is getting bashed, Crisis Core is bashed for being another VII-milkery and oh I'll stop...

So in short, you're wrong and I don't care if people say I'm being blunt or rude and that I should allow you to your opinion. I've heard enough complaints everywhere I go and this is just one too much. Yeah, yeah, I musn't work it out on places like these but please... It's utterly depressing to read unreasonable posts like this one here.

If SE ever manages to release a game that is generally well received, use a Phoenix Down on me, cause I think I've just died. *sigh*

[Hazzard]

Elpizo, that was a truly enlightening post that really made me emphasize with your feelings about FF-haters today, and I also find it appalling and pathetic, and has reached the climatic extent when a gamer is never pleased at what is offered to the plate.

Personally, I love every FF game thrown at me and naturally adapt to playing them, but I guess other people grow to spiteful at what they call "Dysfunctional" errors in the game; let it be graphics, platform, or any other simplistic reason.

[The Ceej]

I don't know if I wasn't clear or if you were reading wrong. I don't hate any mainstream Final Fantasy games. I don't like the Tactics games, but I understand those who do. I'm by no means a basher.

I just want to clarify that when you do with a game what they did with Final Fantasy III and are doing with Final Fantasy IV, it just seems like a completely different game. I'm not against the new game. I just wish the original were available. I understand people who like these DS versions, but that's not me. I prefer classic style for classic games.

As for handhelds. I don't like them. That's me. You can like them all you want. I don't think less of you for liking them and you shouldn't think less of me for not liking them. As a person who doesn't like handhelds, if a game is only available on a handheld, in my mind, it's not available. Therefore, Final Fantasy III (to me anyway) wasn't released in the US. I don't have a huge problem with playing a fan-translated ROM, but I still prefer consoles. I have a right to hold these opinions as a gamer, and I'm offended at your insults implying that I don't. We all have different tastes. And that's exactly the reason that every Final Fantasy game (or any game in general) ever released had some people that didn't like it. I'm not saying I don't like Final Fantasy III as I've never had the chance to play it. I just prefer to play it in classic style and not on a handheld. I hope these random thoughts weren't to jumbled to make out my point as I don't really feel like arranging them in a linear line of thought.

[Jessweeee♪]

Now, now, we all have our opinions and tastes.

I for one am not going to get this game, but that's just because I didn't like the older FFs as much. Though to be fair, I've only played FFIV for the GBA and I just got FFIII DS for my birthday, so I should give the others a chance at least. It all depends on what you look for in a game.

[Elpizo]

The Ceej, the point where you fail is this one:

You deny the official release of Final Fantasy III. That you can't play it is your decision, but therefor it does not mean that it is not released for you in America. It is offficially released in America and no matter how people feel about handhelds, it is released, it exists and that's that. Denying it is just stupid. If it was not released, no coppies of the game would be found in stores.

A release on handheld is a release, plain and simple. And to think "It's not there because it's not on a TV-console" is being plain ignorant. Sorry, but that's the only way I can see it. If tiny screens bother you so much, dive into emulators.

[Bunny]

Eh. It's pretty, but I hope the in-game graphics aren't rip-offs of Final Fantasy III DS.

[cloud21zidane16]

it was a good trailer, but i dont have a DS:( still theres plenty of remakes coming to the psp:)

[Disco Potato]

I was thinking of holding off on buying a DS and FF3 for a couple more years, but after seeing this trailer I think I'll just buy those and IV when IV comes out :D


Eh. It's pretty, but I hope the in-game graphics aren't rip-offs of Final Fantasy III DS.

I think they are:

[atlanteay]

the characters are taller than the ones in FF3 so they're a little bit more proportional but the graphics style is still the same as FF3.

[Zeromus_X]

Considering that Matrix software (who worked on FFIII DS) is working on this remake, I wouldn't consider the graphic style to be a 'rip-off'. Furthermore, the models in FFIV DS have four body parts as opposed to FFIII DS's three.

[Avarice-ness]

HEY THAT'S COOL!

Rosa sounds an awful alot like Riza's japanese voice actor in FMA.

...Just thought I'd point that out. > >;;;

Yeah I want that so much. ; ; I'll kill for a DS now.

[bipper]

I _ cannot _ wait! :cry:

[Elpizo]

YouTube - Final Fantasy IV DS Trailer (Subtitled in English) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLr4UZlo1Gc)

The same trailer, only with english subtitles.

[Galvatron]

I'm glad I have my DS then. I have FFIIIDS, but I never really got around to playing it. I'm looking forward to IVDS very much, the game was already great but the new (or should it be called old) script will hopefully make it better.

Can we assume they are going to go 3D with V and VI? I want this but don't want this at the same time, VI just doesn't seem like it would work in 3D.

[Comet]

Trailer is sexier than the love of my life.

[Hazzard]

lol. Are you seriously going to get the game, E-man, I definitely am...

[atlanteay]

Rydia gets to be a green blob in the game :p

I think the PS1 version had some 3D scenes. It would be great if the whole game looked like them :D

[fredsanford]

I dont own a DS:tongue:

[Sam250]

Can't wait for this game. I was unimpressed by the trailer, but i'm loving the screens. Final Fantasy II DS Visuals + Final Fantasy IV= Love.

Very stupid.

Elpizo your attitude is completely unacceptable. We do not insult other members or deride their opinions on this site. Consider this your first warning, cut it out and post respectfully or you will be banned sooner rather than later.

Also, I'm really looking forward to this. It's definitely on my "to purchase" list.

Fine, ban me then if it makes you happy. I think my attitude is completely fine, thank you. So far, this is only the second time I strongly disagree, but I guess all my other time on this site does not make up my attitude, only this post and the former incident.

Denying the importance of handhelds is just stupid, plain and simple, especially when we look at the sales charts of japan. If we look what dominates that, it's the DS. And what matters for SE is either sales or gaphical power. Don't know if any of you've noticed, but so far the DS has the largest list of games coming for it, of any of the platforms SE supports. Which system matters now, huh? Personal preference does not change the importance the DS has for SE, if you like small screens or not. And I'll say it again, not everybody can afford or is allowed to have system that matters and plug into your TV. For those people, having fine 3D RPGs on their little screens can be a blessing. The DS sells, the games of SE on it sell, SE makes money with it, it's important to them. And that is simply a fact, all personal preferences aside.

[Karellen]

Just to add to the pretty decent summery in the above post of why the DS is a good idea for these remakes, it's also worth noting that it takes a lot less time to develop games for the DS then it does a full-blown console game these days. Consider that FFIV DS was only annoinced a few months ago and is apparently set for release at the end of this year. Compare that to Final Fantasy XII, where there was something like 5 years in between its announcement and actual release.

Sure, a DS remake won't have the production value of a PS3 one but at least we'll be getting it sometime in the next year as opposed to the next decade.

Same thing here.
