Wii - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King - WiiWare - Kotaku writes:

Square Enix honcho Yoichi Wada (above, left) is worried. Western game companies are doing really well! Meaning that competition is getting harder. Yet, Wada hopes to capitalise on the Western market, aiming to increase the ratio of overseas sales from its current 50 percent to 80 percent in the next three years. According to the exec:

"We face competition not only from Japanese videogame companies but from game companies worldwide. We also see some new players from outside the videogame industry coming in... Economies of scale and breadth of scope is getting important. It may be a business alliance or it may be us taking a stake in others, but we need to go beyond traditional Square Enix."

That business alliance sounds nice and all. But, how about stop calling everything Final Fantasy? Or make things other than RPGs? Or if you are going to make RPGs, why not make the games people have been asking for for the past decade?

Wii - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King - WiiWare - WiiWare Final Fantasy to feature pay-to-play elements? Gaming Target writes: Guess what America? Nintendo's WiiWare service has gone live over in Japan. Yes, we have to wait a little bit longer, but thankfully we have the people at Game/Life that don't. So what were they greeted with upon starting their first WiiWare download, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life As A King?

A notice informing them that the product they are downloading will require more points for either additional content or services. While we expected Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life As A King to have additional content for sale, we aren't expecting a service fee.

Wii - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King - WiiWare - WiiWare debuts on March 25 with 9 titles Instead of rolling out a game every week, Nintendo is stocking the WiiWare store with nine games on day one.

Arc System Works' Okiraku Ping Pong Wii and Tenshi Solitaire (Angel Solitaire) cost the same as a Famicom game.

Wii - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King - WiiWare - Crystal Chronicles WiiWare North America Release, Price Revealed The Wiire writes: A Square-Enix representative has informed The Wiire that the company intends to release Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King in tandem with the May 12 launch of WiiWare in North America. The game will sell for 1,500 Wii Points.

My Life as a King will follow the style and scenario of the original Crystal Chronicles for GameCube. Players will assume the role of a young king, Leo, who must rebuild and restore his kingdom. Instead of an action RPG like the first Crystal Chronicles, however, My Life as a King will focus more on simulation elements.

The release date coincides with Nintendo's previously announced launch date for its WiiWare downloadable game platform. Other studios currently developing software for the platform include Nintendo, Frontier Developments and Telltale Games.

Wii - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King - WiiWare - GDC 08: My Life as a King gameplay footage surfaced TSA, a NeoGAF forum member, has attended the WiiWare session of Toshiro Tsuchida and Fumiaki Shiraishi, and was able to record a two minutes video of never seen before Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King gameplay footage.

The developers have made a "tour" of the city they built, and if earlier Forever Fantasy assumed the game won't make it for the North American and European WiiWare launch, this video surely makes it seem like it will; the development is far more advanced than what they had in mind.

Wii - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King - WiiWare - How WiiWare Changed Square Enix Square Enix didn't get to be Japan's powerhouse RPG developer by taking many risks. After the massive success of the big-budget cinematic RPG Final Fantasy VII, says producer Toshiro Tsuchida, the production model for Square Enix games has remained mostly unchanged: Big budgets, huge teams, 2-4 year development cycles, and an emphasis on visual arts.

But Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life As A King has flipped all of that on its head. In a Game Developers Conference session on Thursday, Tsuchida and programmer Fumiaki Shiraishi talked about the lessons they learned creating the small game for WiiWare, Nintendo's upcoming downloadable game service.
