Cloud’s introductory PV:
Cloud’s unforeseen introduction into the game has caused many to not improbably wonder if Square Enix allowed the collaboration solely to hype up Final Fantasy VII’s impending remake…

Cloud is all good when well, but will they include Tifa and give her DoA-style boob-physics?
I'll cry if they don't.
Comment of the month.
Important question of the year.
Conundrum of the century.
inquiry of the decade
So, it's true then.
The Devil may cry.
smash bros has officially "jumped the shark", if it hasnt already.
I miss old fashioned summonings...I miss old fashioned FF in general.
Yeah, I miss FF. FFII-XIV were all shit.
ditto, i miss when final fantasy was 2d midevel fantasy and not 3d emo bullshit.
final fantasy was one of many franchises butchered by the transition to 3d in the mid-late 90's. then again, im old enough to remember when rpg's were good too.
Hey, don't lump IX with the others.
Crash Bandicoot when?
It's only a matter time until the Final Fantasy X Zelda Crossover.
I think it would be better if Link found himself in Cloud's world
fitting, that such a shitty character would grace such a shitty game
this is serious???
cloud amibro please (50 buck OK!0
cloud vs magikarp? we already knew who wins.
of course, magicrap
barring pikachu, does magicrap actually lose to anything?
Kick it enough and it'll evolve into Gyrados
James only kicked his once and it evolved. Then it called more Gyrados, now that's a badass Pokemon to have had
SEPHIROTH! ADD SEPHIROTH!
the title will have to change into super emo bros
This is probably the front runner for "news that everyone assumed was a hoax." It doesn't make much sense. FF7 was pretty much THE killer app for the Playstation, so having Cloud in this celebration of Nintendo classics is even more ridiculous than Solid Snake was. Terra or Cecil would make more sense, and Crono would be amazing, but none of them are as popular, or are advertising on upcoming game, are they?
Slime or any Dragon Quest hero would make more sense, but this is more surprising. And Capcom has 2 characters soo why not both?
It makes total sense if you think about it. It's Nintendo taking FF back, or at least in spirit anyway, with the first main FF character not to appear on a Nintendo system.
Gran Turismo would beg to differ.
What the fuck for? FF is Playstation shit. Well I guess this would give people a chance to have a link vs Cloud Deathbattle.

>this is what kiddies believe
And this is why I won't ever support Nintendo. Its entire library is just fanboy pandering.
Sorry, Nintendo can't hear you over the sound of the money rolling in.
Preposterous! FF7 was THE game that created a rift between Nintendo and Square after years of collaboration in exclusive. it was supposed to be for N64 and then Square "betrayed" Nintendo choosing the Playstation like a goldigger whore who foes only woth the rich and more powerful mate. And then THIS?
It's perfect though isn't it? It's like a little jab to Sony, like saying "see that character, Sony? he's back where he belongs now".
The funniest thing would be if they started porting over Final Fantasy games to Nintendo systems now, starting with the original PSX trilogy... FF7 would be perfect for the 3DS actually.
It wasn't final fantasy being released on PS1 that killed the relationship, but the disparaging remark made by then Squaresoft's then president. At which point Nintendo pulled their developer license and Squaresoft had no choice but to latch onto Sony, in hopes of surviving without Nintendo. Squaresoft tried killing their ass for years, hoping to at least release games on the Gameboy handhelds before Nintendo finally let them develop games on their platforms.
