[SPOILER ALERT] - The Sevens Squares. - A Square-Enix general support threads.

If there is anything I could take that as meaning though, is the possibility of orchestral tracks instead of midi tracks. Not really likely but now it's not impossible either.

since Nintendo manage to get a hold of that for DQXIS, i say its pretty good than unlikely now.

"several sources"
-presses X to doubt-
I've been calling and betting on a direct this next week for a good while already, but gaming intel really dont spark a lot of confidence from me, considering they pay 10$ to get leaks from people lol. Hopefully it's true, however i won't give them credit for calling the most obvious prediction in the world haha.

Woah
Long time since I didn't visit here..

This is just adorable.

I absolutely loved it. :3

I'm a little annoyed that someone in the thread said that Erdrick is essentially Robin 2.0

Yep. Shows the ignorance of some out there.

I personally don't want a Chrono sequel unless

1. Yuji Horii, Hironobu Sakaguchi, and Akira Toriyama all come back,
2. They have a solid idea they're confident about on what this new game should be, and
3. Characters are kept to a small amount like in the first game so they all get adequate character development, to avoid another Chrono Cross situation where barely any of the 40-ish characters are developed.

Masato Kato doesn't have to come back but Yasunori Mitsuda's return would be appreciated, but in either case I think new people can step in.

Chrono Trigger was a one of a kind game that I sincerely think can't happen again, the circumstances were too perfect and it almost feels like destiny that everything came together so well. So I don't really want another Chrono game and have moved onto other stuff.

As for Chrono as a playable character, I'd be okay with them as a Mii costume, weirdly enough. The Mii Swordfighter already has a few recovery specials that resemble some techs of his, both the spinning slash (Hero's Spin) and the jump dive (Stone Scabbard). The wind slash he does could be represented with Gale Strike. Stuff like that. Crono would only be missing his lightning magic which is admittedly a bit of a shame, but it's workable enough for me if it were to happen.

This.
Chrono didn't continue bc Sakaguchi wasn't with Square-Enix and the writers called the entire thing off.
Much like FF, the series would have small connections between them, but overall, stories and characters would be a lot more different. A sequel to Chrono's own story isn't likely. And honestly, the ending of Trigger was already a great finale to the arc of the original crew.

since Nintendo manage to get a hold of that for DQXIS, i say its pretty good than unlikely now.

Nintendo helped pay the NHK royalties. They don't have any rights over the music themselves. And DQ music in a non-SE game is still an extreme rarity. It's still S-E that decides the conditions for the use of their music. Expect something similar to FF

Copy pasting from the Social Thread, but GamingIntel also claimed a January direct, two directs in November, and a Persona 5 Switch announcement in March would happen. PolarPanda is also cautious of the site, so take what I said as you will.

If it's anything, it'll probably just be a mini direct or a Smash one. Gotta keep in mind that Nintendo don't just do real Directs just willy nilly, every other week. They're more of a special treat every once and a while, you know?

Well hopefully it's still soon because we are all dying here ROFL.

Let me start acting crazy already by saying that in 5 mins it will be officially monday where I'm from and i'm already having PTSD thinking how every morning I will wake up and pick my phone to load twitter just to find no announcement yet lol

Ahhh just like the old days. Especially since this will be Reggie's last direct

 

[ZelDan]

I expect a Smash direct to happen, but I feel it's too soon for a Nintendo Direct, even if it's been about a couple months since the last one (but maybe the long wait for the last general direct is clouding things for me).

Dunno if this counts as a spoiler since Nintendo leaked it themselves:

Spoiler

Stage Builder is confirmed for 3.0

"So, fellas, we need to make a new Smash commercial by next week. What do we do?"
"Hmm... Oh, I know! Let's make a commercial that has content we haven't announced yet for the game in it!"
"Mark, you're a god damn genius. Let's make this thing, boys."

It looks like Jokers release is delayed... https://twitter.com/Some_KidNick/status/1112019317560881153
Which if true makes it more then likely mean that Fighter 2 delayed with its reveal.....

This is old news and also this absolutely doesn't mean a delay - the syntax of the ellipses means it's coming soon. The render has been sent to press kits, 3.0 is confirmed dropping, and it's April now.

I did not know that xD Oh well..

 

[Nazyrus]

Told you all they were a joke, lol. Not only charging money to people but also charging for fake leaks now. R.I.P. those guys lmao.

Anyway my range prediction was the entire week till before Reggie's retirement day. Still crossing fingers.

Top tier video from S-E to close off the classic FFs relaunched on Switch. Obviously, it has spoilers, so proceed with caution if you haven't played it already
Also, first time I see this thread not on the first page of the Newcomer Spec threads. Gotta keep this alive.

Thanks for sharing and keeping this thread alive :>

Here's some video game trivia to revitalize the thread:

In the original FF, there is a grave that has multiple video game characters. Erdrick's grave is in the English version of FF1 for the NES (this image will get use if Erdrick doesn't get in). This is particularly cool because it forshadows the Square and Enix merger by a little over a decade.

However in the Japanese and Later versions of the game (including the Playstation version) the grave belongs to "Link"

Erdrick still dies in Japan, with him having an exclusive gravesite in the Japanese version of Zelda II

I want Erdrick and Link to fight each other for real, too.

And if Erdrick gets in, they will

Speaking of Erdrick fighting, I just finished updating the erdrick thread. Including movesets at the end of the post

 

[Icewolff92]

Is it just me or does FF7 crash for you if you fight with x3 speed set on for you that have bought it on the Switch?

 

[Teeb147]

I saw other people say it crashed too. Some in general and some with x3 speed on. Looks like they didn't do a perfect job with the port. Hopefully it gets patched at some point.

I use it all the time and it only happened once for me, sure was annoying to lose 40 minutes of progress though :T

Well friends, looks like the RIDE is going to continue into E3

 

[Icewolff92]

It's confirmed that Mementos is Jokers stage now

 

[NomadLuminary]

JOKER LOOKS SO GOOD

 

[Ovaltine]

Well, at least Geno's costume should end up coming back alongside Erdrick's challenger pack. Woo. It's something. Hopefully he'll have a chance if and only if we get future passes.

If it doesn't come back with Erdrick's pack, though, I will riot.

 

[Untouch]

Doubling down on my prediction of both DOOMguy and Erdrick at E3.

 

[Deleted member]

They really waited til the day before his release to drop his full trailer, I call that last surprise

 

[EarlTamm]

Doubling down on my prediction of both DOOMguy and Erdrick at E3.

This did make Doomguy a bit more likely, as the whole realistic weapon argument is kinda mute when Joker's special move is literally called "gun."

Yeah, pretty sure we'll get that band-aid ripped when the SE rep gets revealed, whoever it turns out to be.

One more thing of note that I had pointed out to me:

The 5ch leak with just Joker and Erdrick is now confirmed fake because Jack Frost isn't present at all in Joker's move set, when it was said he would be. We do have Morgana, though.

 

[PsySmasher]

Heya guys! Long time no see.
Well definitely wasn't expecting that. Joker's coming tomorrow!
The Mii costume leak was real.
The 5chan leak is fake b/c of no Jack Frost.
I'm not really sure where this puts Erdrick tbh. Guess the earliest we will found out is at E3.

It certainly breaks that leak apart. Tho doesn't 100% deconfirm it since they could've scrapped jack frost. But just saying it, dont count me to back up the 5ch leak

 

[TheCJBrine]

I'm personally hoping E3 gives us a Microsoft character alongside Slimerick. Recent stuffs makes this seem very likely, too.

You mean like Nintendo and Microsoft being buddy-buddy, or is there a new leak I'm not aware of?

'Cause if they're making me wait til E3, they better bring ****ing Banjo to make up for it.
