Squeenix Not Talking On Crystal Bearers

[Lýfelíëk Heroblãde]

Here's another thing I don't get- after seeing that kickass lil' trailer for FFCC: tCB it goes MIA. It's been a while now with nothing and we're seeing a TON on the WiiWare FF game. From wii.qj.net:

It's been a long while since our last update on Square Enix's Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers for the Wii. During the video game company's recent presentation at the GDC 2008, representatives refused to comment on the game's status.

Square Enix Producer Toshiro Tsuchida and lead programmer Fumiaki Shiraishi showed up during the event to show off their upcoming WiiWare title for the next-gen console with Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King. However, when pressed after their presentation regarding the The Crystal Bearers' current status, they only told everyone to "wait for a press release".

This leaves us to wonder whether FFCC: My Life as a King will act as a permanent replacement to the previously scheduled title on the Wii and spell the end of the retail Crystal Chronicles game. We guess this means that Square Enix just isn't ready to show us what they have up their sleeves for now.

As a matter of fact, I found that original trailer on youtube. It looks like it's either unning on a modified version of the FFXII or KH engine. Here it is:

Interesting...

I was hoping for some turn-based Wiimote swinging action.
Making sword slices and hand movements for casting spells.

That is...different, from what I expected, for sure.
Well, who knows. SE hasn't let me down before...
I'm sure it'll be good. Just, not what I was expecting.

Looks like some company has been hard at work on the mystery game. A new trailer of Crystal Bearers apparently came with the freshly released FFCC: Echoes of Time and, of course, it found it's way to YouTube:

Check out the opening cinematic- looks really good. Exactly what the doctor ordered for the Wii.
