spirited away Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Sqaure Enix have expressed interest in bringing an online title to the Wii but it won't be possible for them unless Nintendo relaxes its freind code policy. The two companies hope to come to an agreement over it. Source: Ngamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellfire Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Hmm, would make sense, with the whole co-op thing going on. I loved the original. Me too. Also, isn't it possible for devs to use their own servers or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Christal Chronicles? lol Crystal Chronicles was already promised to be online wasn't it? Or was that just the DS version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I hadnt realised this was posted before... until you chaps started mentioning Crystal Chronicles. I hope they do come to an arrangement over the friend code issue for this. But if not, we can share our friend codes via the boards here and play together anyway! It would be great if theres something else in the pipeline too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCK Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Thank you so much Nintendo, not only are you going to screw up the Wii online system, it is going to cost us games as well. Get it sorted. This shouldn't be happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaggle64 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I don't understand how the multiplayer on something like Crystal Chronicles would be in conflict with the friend codes system, unless there's some part of some MMO-like feature conflicting with it (lobby ect.). I'm sure Ninty and Squeenix, two companies who are all probably having hawt butt schecks with each other in between meetings, will work something out.

Hellfire Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I also don't see how it conflicts with friend codes, but if S-E tries to talk Nintendo out of it, it might be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I don't think it's conflicting, but the Friend Code system is potentially a barrier for online games (it makes it a lot harder to connect); and therefore I think Square Enix has doubts about it. You don't want to release an online game on a system that restrains people from playing. What I hope Nintendo will do is create some sort of system that utilizes the Wii mailing system to pass on Friend Codes from the games without having to manually transfer them. Hope they make it easier, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 It's probably more of a creative decision then any kind of technical barrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant barrier for the users. The Friend Codes make it less attractive to play online, especially for the Wii's main audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
