First trailer for Wii Ware Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles

So it's project O, except everyone is (quite literally) a couple years older. 6 year olds instead of 4 year olds. Fantastic.

I hope the full-blown FF:CC game isn't as sugary sweet as this game looks to be.

looks great, and i absolutely love the music

Yeah, that game is nowhere near the graphical quality of the "real" Crystal Chronicles game coming to the Wii.. but it still looks way too good to logically fit onto the Wii's flash drive. I really think more storage is coming and sooner than we might think.

Why would this RPG require a HDD? FF7 ran fine on PS1 just on 3 CDs.

Michael is right. The Wii has 512 MB available in total. FF7 is ~2100 MB in size. It would TOTALLY fit on the Wii.

Dont Wii games come on discs anymore?

Michael, you obviously missed the point that this game is a DOWNLOAD.

Ah. Thanks.

FF7 is not even close to 2100MB... It does take up 3 CD's but thats because of the video files. The rest of the game is on all 3 disks. Total the game really is like 350MB + movie files.

Without the movies (they could be streamed over the internet) FF7 would fit in the Wii's 512MB of storage but it would not leave much space for other games. Plus if the game elements were compressed it would be a lot smaller.

Looks like it could be good, but it's hard to tell from this sort of trailer. Here's hoping though.

"Without the movies (they could be streamed over the internet) FF7 would fit in the Wii's 512MB of storage but it would not leave much space for other games."

Or, since streaming parts of a game over the internet blows because sometimes I'm not going to be connected to the internet while playing the Wii, they could actually put all the files for any given game on the system.

Streaming information sucks unless it's a game that you HAVE to be online to play it.

I'm glad you are back, Alisha. You are such a nice girl!

Its looking good indeed! and i think there most def has to be an announcement of a hd (perhaps at wii ware launch).

I mean think about it, yeh that game coudl fit on your wii's internal memory but what else can go in there after hmmmm not much if anything!

and you cant keep asking people to delete and redownload games all the time, esp if they are big as it will take ages and people will just get bored of doing that and not use the service as much!

Remember there is no download limit being placed on Wii ware games so they could in fact be quite substancial in size at the end of the day.

If Wii would support USB storage, that would be like a stab in back of PS360 for tying the hard drive with game systems.

Kudos to Nintendo. (Even mentioning the capability is worth praise.)

Looks good. I agree, this is an indication storage will be happening. I still think it will be as simple as unlocking the sd card slot, which is what I would prefer. On the other hand, a shiny white USB dongle could happen too. Anything else would violate the design aesthetic of the hardware.
