Dear Sqaure Enix, Please bring Kingdom Hearts 3 over to the Wii U

mii-gamer writes

The biggest bombshell of E3 2013 was the revelation that Kingdom Hearts 3 was in development for the PS4. The realization that the trailer was the official announcement of Kingdom Hearts 3, my heart stopped, my breathing hastened, my mind in a state of disbelief. The game we have been begging Square to make for an entire generation will eventually come.

While I'd love for the game to be on a console I already own (would not mind a PS3 version either), it probably won't happen. By my understanding the game is making full use of the PS4 and Xbox One's assets. They would have to make an entirely different build of the game, which would probably cost more to make than just making a straight port to, say, the PC.

Like I said, it would be great if they did that, but I don't think it'll happen unfortunately.

Please don't, its a downgraded experience enough with the Xbox 1 version.

mii-gamer.com, its kinda pathetic that Nintendo fans ask for ports when they don't even support the system. WiiU is the worst selling console since decades, its doing worse than GameCube.

3rd parties skip the WiiU because it doesn't sell.

With those facts in mind, KH3 will not come to WiiU.

user55757083957d ago

its kind of a slap in the face to nintendo that this is coming to xbox one and not wiiU.

but it all comes down to money and an xbox one port would be very easy due to similar system architecture while a wiiU port would probably cost them too much to justify a port due to development costs and lower install base

ricochetmg3957d ago

it has sold more than any other next gen console.

_QQ_3957d ago

Yeah and that fact that its not coming to PC means its a severely downgraded on PS4 Xboxone ;(

gedden73957d ago

And really this is my only complaint about how Nintendo handles its business (3rd party devs and pubs)..

Direct 11 support will outright disband a handful if not a ton of titles from ever coming to the Wii U.. Think about it and this just "first gen" Next Gen engines and software, what do you think will happen in 2.5 years from now??.. New engines and new tech, right! So I wonder how this will work out.

BTW I am really happy with my Wii U just waiting on the games!

stragomccloud3957d ago

I'd take a PC port over other versions; however, that said, a Wii U version wouldn't be too lacking. The Wii U is capable of pretty much everything the xbone/ps4 are cpu/gpu wise. It's only issue is the ram. And the gpu is slower which actually doesn't really matter so much because of the memory built onto the gpu. But it's really not a game breaker, theyd just have to lower the quality slightly, and have more loading times.

Dj7FairyTail3957d ago (Edited 3957d ago )

yeah make it on Xbox One where there no KH game or fanbase to begin with.
Like it will sell.

rainslacker3956d ago

A side story game would be OK. Multi-plat would be better of course. Plenty of those on the portables...although side story doesn't really fit the nature of the game...but I think you know what I mean.

Unless the wii u install base goes up dramtically it will most likely remain on 4 and one.

It makes more sense to have it on wii u and ps4 since all of the games are on nintendo and sony platforms.

There isn't even going to be a catch up for xbox players like the 1.5 collection coming to ps3.

I am just excited to know more about the game even though it is ages away.

stragomccloud3957d ago

I really hate that argument, because right now, the Wii U install base is a few million higher than xbone/ps4.

Dj7FairyTail3957d ago

nope has nothig to do with install base. It has something o do with Directx 11 which PS4 dont have if I can recall

SonyNGP3957d ago

It's gonna take more than an expansion pak to run that on the Wii U.

ricochetmg3957d ago

Kh3 did not look like a graphics monster.

Dj7FairyTail3957d ago

nothing graphically impressive was shown. Expansion pack is for loading more data not graphic.

ziratul3957d ago

Cartoonish graphics generally means less polygons and because of that it can be optimized to work just fine on Wii U.

Triforce0793957d ago (Edited 3957d ago )

The game can run on wiiu at the same level of detail as xbox one if you think it can't you clutching on straws.

Just because a game isn't coming to wiiu doesn't mean wiiu can't handle the game ? it's the start of the generation,wiiu has a custom E6760 with tons of edram please stop talking crap guys,KH3 won't be pushing ps4 to its limits just like X on wiiu won't look anything like the games you will see in say 2 years time ect,any game on ps4 in its first few years will not be boyond wiiu capabilities,RAM is irrelevant as Havok nextgen is built into wiiu devkits with compression x10.

Harkins17213957d ago

Oh so a pre-alpha build showed you all this yes? Better hardware on Ps4 for a much bigger open world experience with 7GB towards games. I want KH3 to be even more open world then KH1 was. KH2 was alright but I missed the openess it had. WiiU would be able to handle that.

ziratul3957d ago

I am Wii U owner, I am happy to have it so I can play DK and Mario Kart, but please let's not defend WiiU hardware power. In compare with PS4 it has much less raw power.

sephiroth4203957d ago

i reakon they could do, it looks like they arnt using the luminous engine with this game, i really wish they had've done though -__-ahwell we wont see that shit for tiiiiiiiiiiiiime.

Final Fantasy XVI Has Finally Given Donald Duck A Worthy Opponent

For a long time, it's been widely accepted amongst Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts fans that Donald Duck is the most powerful mage ever to exist, mainly due to his use of the stupidly powerful Zettaflare spell towards the end of Kingdom Hearts 3. This spell is one step up from Teraflare, a spell which was used in Final Fantasy XIV that was so powerful that it completely wiped out the base game, giving the developers a canonical reason to let them bin everything and start again from scratch.

Now you're armed with this information, you can see how it was pretty surprising for Donald Duck of all characters to bust out Zettaflare and establish himself as the most powerful character in Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts lore. However, now that Final Fantasy XVI has arrived and delivered a whole new cast of characters, a new challenger has arrived to provide Donald with some much needed competition.

Final Fantasy's Strongest Canonical Magic User Is... Donald Duck?

Final Fantasy features many strong characters, but an unlikely character from Kingdom Hearts is able to cast ​the most powerful spell ever seen

he was already my favourite disney character and one of my favs from KH and then to see that amazing spell too. aah so good xD

Final Fantasy's strongest magic user is Donald Duck, who never appears in a final fantasy game.

This Kingdom Hearts Boss' Unpredictability Gave Me Sekiro Vibes

Kingdom Hearts is filled with otherworldly boss battles, but only one stands out like a phoenix dancing with ethereal grace across the night sky. Before we embark upon a discussion concerning Kingdom Hearts' exceptional boss battles, it may be prudent to first reflect on the evolution of the criteria for appraising video game bosses. This criterion has undergone a major metamorphosis over the past decade; one that owes much to the profound influence of From Software and its iconic Souls series.

"Yozora is much more than a grueling secret encounter; he is a reflection of what Kingdom Hearts' bosses should be"

No thank you. If every boss in Kingdom Hearts was like Yozora, the series would be unplayable. That's not to say that they shouldn't include such challenges, but making them fundamental to the game would be too much. And don't say that this is what the From Software games are, because Yozora is absolutely harder than most of the bosses in those games. He is waaay faster, has a ludicrous number of abilities (and does them in random order AND can chain most of them together), and punishes you severely if you make a mistake. On top of that, you have to survive this onslaught for a really long time because of how much health he has. It's borderline too much - for me at least. Still, it's a stunning battle.

OMNlPOTENT361d ago

I agree, while I do really enjoy the Yozora fight, I think it's far too difficult to be anything more than an optional boss. However, I do believe that there should be more bosses that are in the same weight and size class as Sora, as the majority of those in KH3 were the best fights. The giant heartless bosses just aren't as enjoyable.
