New screenshots of the dual DS-Wii release Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time show off a lot of rather interesting new things! First, and most obviously, hey, it's the King and Chime from My Life as a King! Actually, as far as we can tell, it's player characters in costumes resembling the stars of Square Enix's WiiWare strategy game. Second, it seems that the Wii version has received a bit more of a visual upgrade since we last saw it. It's smoother, anyway.
Echoes of Time features a (fairly standard) "New Game Plus" mode in which players can start again after finishing the game, to find more items, including many that are unavailable the first time through. We assume that's the only way to get these costumes, for instance. You can choose either to start again with your same character and continue building, or to start a new character, which increases the difficulty!

GAH! I want the Crystal Bearers trailer now!! T-T
And I'm glad they visually upgraded the game for the Wii.. It did look like garbage last time we saw it.

So if I could choose either one to play, as I have both systems, which one should I pick?
Is one better?

I'd say go with the DS version, since the visuals look more at home on a DS... plus it's portable!

It doesn't look any different to me...
I mean, think about it: the screenshots in the gallery are twice the size as the ones on Famitsu. If you shrink down the gallery images by about 50% (easy to do instantly if you have Image Zoom on Firefox!), it looks just as "smooth" as these screenshots do.
I really don't think any's changed...
