Shahid Ahmad: 'Proposed deal for one of the most requested Vita games'

Type 0 would make sense because of agito, but maybe it's too optimistic...
Other than type 0, tales of and valkyre chronicles 3, what are the most requested games?

Type-0 isn't a Vita game though.
Now that you made me think... Maybe it's not type 0 :(

What's so special about FF Type-0?
The best recent final fantasy(tbh not an hard task considering ffxiii games...) and probably it's in a good position in the list of the best final fantasy games.

I'm getting really tired of Twitter teasing from game companies and especially the gaming "journalists". My initial reaction when reading these is quickly becoming one of "fuck you". Either give out information or shut the fuck up.
 
I know a lot of people are saying Final Fantasy Type-0 but wasn't that Tag Cloud posted in the other thread of disappointment showing that Tales is getting more requests?
 
Has he fulfilled his first promise of some big game coming to Vita or does he just enjoying spouting bullshit for people starved for any announcements?
 
Quite looking forward to seeing what it is. GET THAT PSO2 IN THE US! -ahem-

There's way more than enough gaming for me to not stress over this... I want to see some great Vita games, but my world won't be shattered if it's not something I want, y'know?

Will keep an eye out, and a ear listening in his general direction...

Never understood the demand for a FF7 remake. How can you improve on perfection?

Okay hyperbole aside, I don't see what a remake could possibly add to the game. It's beautiful as it is.

A FF7 Remake with FF7AC-quality CG running in high resolution with potentially updated-to-high-res-ps2-quality visuals would probably sell great to many people.

...I'd prefer FFVI, personally.
 
He also said he "proposed" a deal. Which basically means nothing right now, for all we know, the deal could fall through.

It's very stupid of him to make this tweet. Like I said earlier, he's setting himself up for backlash/lost credibility.

Agreed. It's a silly tweet. I wouldn't blame him though. Anyone getting unnecessarily excited should learn some self control.

"Proposing" a deal and "Securing" a deal are fairly different things. And one looks infinitely easier than the other.
 
i know it's a good game (I played this series since CM) but it not what people hyped for though.

If you want me to guess this time

"Most requested game" = Mighty No.9
"Progress on jRPG" = the new Atelier game

Is that Shahid's fault or the people that hyped it up's?
It's not Shahid's.

It's possible to appreciate what Shahid does and find his tweets entertaining without hyping the shit out of the smallest thing. Like the tweet in the OP for instance, how do we even know his proposal was even successful? He certainly didn't say that (as I'm guessing he doesn't know, they'll probably get back to him) but suddenly that means there's a big AAA game coming or something. It's ridiculous.
 
Shahid said "one of the most requested Vita games", which Type-0 definitely is.

Makes sense.

Then again there's a separate tweet for #JRPGVita (which Type-0 also definitely belongs to) to say that they're making some progress which makes it sound like it's a separate thing moving at a slower pace.

Either way, could be Tales, could be Type-0, could be something else. Until they have a name to drop I have nothing to be excited about.

Does look good.

Maybe it's MH4? o_O

Bro, fuck that. FFVII characters in cg looked terrible and ruined the cut scenes for me. The game works amazingly well in the chibi style and adds a whimsical endearing quality to it that realistically proportioned characters wouldn't be able to bring to the game.
 
Fair enough. I also just thought about the possibility that he made this tweet as a negotiating tactic. If the title is in fact Type 0, he'd be able to point to the twitter/forum hype when convincing the other party (SquareEnix?) that the deal would be beneficial to them.

The reason I doubt it's an FF game is because, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Shahid manages Sony's relationship with their Japanese devs. I imagine they have a special Japanese procurement team for that purpose.

I agree. These guys may as well simply tweet: "Get Hyped!!!"

In this case, he's tweeting that he proposed a deal, not even that a deal has been confirmed. Did he ever actually follow-up and confirm the result of his last big hype up or are we simply assuming that it was Football Manager?

Yeah, I definitely agree with this. It's timeless; all they could really improve on is the visuals, and anything they changed would be liable to screw ups. FFVII has actually aged a lot better than many of its peers of the same age, due to most of the visuals being in lovely 2D.
 
Not getting too hyped.
Too much hype normally leads to disappointment...

Type-0 localisation or Demons Souls Vita please Shahid.
 
Please for the love of GOD make a Souls game on Vita. You're just sitting on the Demon's Souls IP Sony...just license it out to FROM.
