THEATRHYTHM Final Fantasy Announced for 3DS...

Well, it does, you just roll the last syllable of "theatre" and the first of "rhythm" together awkwardly.

Seems a very Nomurian-title actually *.*
 
Game looks awesome in the scan, much better than the character design on the KH pic Kagari posted. It has an interesting art and its a rhythm game, something I love, and it has Final fantasy music.

Lets wait for the videos to give the apporval.

The name is fucking stupid though.
 
Lol Final Fantasy doesn't even mean anything anymore, it's just a brand that guarantees a minimal level of sales on whatever wacky game you slap it into, like SpongeBob or Duke Nukem.
 
lol that name but I'm interested, could turn out to be a fun little game. SE's handheld entries rarely disappoint me.
 
Is this a rhythm game trough and trough or is it an RPG with rhythm-based battles?

The former sounds stupid, the latter could be really cool.
 
So by the look of the logo and the fact that WoL and Onion Knight and other Dissidia mainstays are in it, I take it that this is what the Dissidia 012 team is doing next?

If so, then my face: 0___________0
 
I signed up for http://www.the-pause-button.com/ just so I could contribute to the Square Name Generator.

I sent in a bunch of German and Latin words, and some scientific terms that sounded a little Square-Enixian.

Every one of my contributions has been bested by the first-class wackiness that is THEATRYTHM.

It's almost possible to imagine Japanese people liking the name, though; if it's テアトリズム in katakana, it's the same as "theatrism", which might conceivably be an English word.

This is strangely correct and sad.

The writing was curiously painted on the wall with Final Fantasy Adventure and Mystic Quest. It re-affirmed all senses when X-2 was released; a decent game but the stepping stone of Square Enix's current path.
 
Looks like an April Fool's joke, someone should tell S-E they're a few months late.

MAYBE THAT FLIES ON SOME MESSAGE BOARDS (IGN, FREE REPUBLIC) BUT NOT EVERYWHERE ON THE INTERNET (INTERNET)

My statement needed to be bolded and caps due to the utter truth of the statement.

Nothing wrong with more Rhythm games but... to slap the FF brand on this? Square get your shit together.
It's a rhythm game about Final Fantasy music. Why would you not slap the FF name on it?
 
Square Enix is brilliant with naming. I envy whoever gets to make those names.

However, although the concept sounds fun, it looks like a pretty cheap game.
 
This could be a good thing. Maybe it's a sign that Square is going back to it's PSX days where they experimented, which resulted in games like Bushido Blade, Einhander, and Tobal. =)
 
Jesus Fucking Christ.

This is proof beyond any reasonable doubt that Square-Enix have absolutely no clue in the world what their demographic wants.

Maybe they've realized that and are trying to appeal to another demographic?
 
This is actually a really smart move. Think about it-- guitar hero is totally hot right now! And so is Final Fantasy! they really wanna cash in on that hot rhythm game market. I think they can sell billions like this.


oh wait, it's not 5 years ago
 
Guys, I heard that Naughty Dog is working on an awesome beachball game starring Nathan and Sully in European style bathing suits. There's even a photography minigame!
 
Sax_Man said:
Then why even bother calling it Final Fantasy?
Because it uses Final Fantasy music, characters, and situations? This seems like something where the Final Fantasy name is there for a reason, rather than just their way of saying "PLEASE BUY THIS!" as with something like Crystal Chronicles.

Why's Nomura doing everything but what we really want (TWEWY2) on 3DS?
There's a good chance this could be the spiritual successor, if Jupiter is involved.

Is there any way to deduce it or figure if they're working on this before next week?

At first I thought the title was "threat rhythm" and while it wasn't a great title, I couldn't understand why everyone on Twitter and elsewhere was complaining about it.

But it's actually "theat rhythm" like "thee ay turr urr ythm". Uh huh.

Maybe they should leave the English puns and neologisms to, I don't know, native English speakers?

But then it'd be called Final Fantasy: Rhythm of War.

Fuck neologisms. They confuse and anger the average consumer.

Mmmm, I don't get a twewy vibe in any way from this

I'm interested. I love Rhythm games, I love Final Fantasy music, and I like crossovers.
I feel this way too. I think it could be fun.

I've been interested in the idea of an RPG/rhythm hybrid.

What? NO! >:
Yeah, it looks nothing like TWEWY. Unless of course a rhythm game based around prompts reminds people of the top screen enough to call it one. XD

I think it's weird that people are liking it more after they see the scan actually, and I really don't understand the comparisons I'm seeing either. I think the concept of a Final Fantasy rhythm RPG sounds neat, but when I saw the scan and it looked like a cheap parody that probably make a shitty mini-game people spend a few minutes on before moving on from it rather than a standalone product.
