Final Fantasy XIV still a possibility for Switch, discussions with Nintendo may take awhile
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 18 Comments
Square Enix has mentioned on a couple of occasions that Final Fantasy XIV is a possibility for Switch. This is something that director Naoki Yoshida reiterated once again while speaking with finder.com.au.
According to Yoshida, discussions with Nintendo are ongoing. However, when putting Final Fantasy XIV on a new platform, supporting the community is a shared responsibility between Square Enix and Nintendo. The two sides are talking about this (and likely more), but Yoshida said that “these conversations will take a long time.”
Yoshida’s full words:
“We want as many players joining Final Fantasy XIV as possible. …We need to make sure Nintendo and Microsoft understand what we do and have them know about our online and QA regulations. We believe these conversations will take a long time.”

Once again, Weekly Jump magazine has some new Dragon Quest XI info in its latest issue. This week, we’ve got new details on two party members and on one new location (thanks to Gematsu for the translation).
Veronica
Veronica hates being treated like a child. She can equip two-handed staffs and whips as weapons. Despite her small size, she is a tomboy who won’t flinch in a fight no matter her opponent. She can unleash beyond-powerful attack spells that prove her use as the party’s attacker.
Spells she can use include:
- “Kafrizzle” – A powerful spell where a pillar of overly-hot flames attack the enemy.
- “Gilaglade” – Heat up and clear away the enemy with the earth-shaking flame that is this powerful attack spell.
Her weapon skills include:
- “Berserk Magic Circle” – A special skill using the two-handed staff that strengthens spells.
- “Extreme Dragon Strike” – A special skill using the whip that consecutively strikes the enemy.
Senya
Senya is a healer who can cure her allies. She can equip spears and sticks. She has a kind heart and gentle personality. In contrast to Veronica, her language is awfully polite. Her easygoing and gentle personality may even make Veronica impatient at times.
Spells she can use include:
- “Kerplunk” – A spell that heals all party members at the expense of herself.
- “Kaswooshle” – An attack spell, which Senya can also use.
- “Holy Light” – No description provided.
Her weapon skills include:
- “Flash Strike” – A special skill using the stick and spear.

Square Enix on making Seiken Densetsu Collection for Switch, developments for 25th anniversary teased
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch | 5 Comments
In this week’s issue of Famitsu, Seiken Densetsu Collection producer Masaru Oyamada is interviewed. Oyamada spoke about why the package was brought to Switch and also teased new developments for the series’ 25th anniversary.
Below are several tidbits from the interview, as translated by Gematsu:
- (Regarding the release of Seiken Densetsu Collection🙂 When I thought that I wanted to release a packaged edition that compiles the first three Seiken Densetsu games, Nintendo Switch, the most suitable hardware, was announced. The platform makes it easy for users to enjoy multiplayer.
- Today’s elementary school students only know the latest high-definition graphic titles. I want parents and children to enjoy the classic Seiksen Densetsu titles together.
- The point I want you to pay attention to is the transition and connection of the series. I want you to become acquainted with these amazing games released over 20 years ago.
- The tricks from the original versions of the games were left almost as is.
- (Regarding a new title:) Of course, I would like to announce new developments on the series’ 25th anniversary.
- It’s still undecided, but there may be some sort of movement when playing Seiken Densetsu Collection.
- I want to develop the series more and more from here on. Please support us.
