Too little original characters. It would be great and as a huge KH fan I would support it, but they do not have enough Kingdom Hearts series Original Characters. Too many Final Fantasy and Disney ones.
Square Enix Theatrhythm would be great. Or if they want marketing, call it Final Fantasy Theatrhythm+ and just include the main games and make them take a back seat to the rest of the franchises being in the spotlight.
Square, you have so many beloved characters and songs that aren't in FF, capitalize! Bravely Default, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Brave Fencer Musashi, bring them all in!
Heck, the Bravely Default characters are already done in a similar Theatrhythm-esque style in their own respective game, plus the game was initially planned to be a FF-spinoff until they gave it a different name.
Thanks, I was immediately upset that Rose of May didn't play in the Museum, at least not in the Collecticard part. Maybe it's somewhere else in the game.
On the first one the controls were horrible. The 3ds screen really struggled and the screen kept not responding on the arrows which lost me so many all criticals. But this one is amazing. Lots of new songs, new characters, new modes and significantly improved controls. It os very much worth getting. It is now my favorite 3ds game.
Yeah, I wish the theatrhythm series would branch out. I think the Mega Man series is perfect for this. But SquareEnix did publish it as ripley pointed out. Though a smaller studio (indies0) created it. Also, they stated this would be the last Theatrhythm game).
Just got this today. An astounding improvement over the first game(which was quite good). I just spent an hour with it. So many more songs, a quest mode and everything is much easier to unlock. Takes me back!
Souma Yukihira Sure, but I also own most of the games that have the song anyways, so there's little point in me buying the games for the songs I already technically own. It looks like an excellent game though, and I'm a huge HUGE sucker for rhythm games. 39.99 is just a wee bit much for the game portion. However, it's probably an excellent deal for people not in my situation.
"I'll grab it on sale or used" That's what I thought about the first Theatrhythm game, ended up being harder to find afterward than I thought, still goes for around €30 nowadays (here in Europe/the Netherlands, at least).
Can someone who has played this game answer this question? Does playing this game spoil some of the other Final Fantasy games? I've only played 10 and I'm play through 13 now. I love the music of these games and I want to play the game but some of the cut scenes seem to play spoilers from other FF games. Should I be worried about this?
So I preordered the collectors edition from Square Enix's store. The only problem? Digital F*cking River. I've bought a couple things from their store and ran into problems (delays, cancellations,etc.) every single time. This is the last time I will ever use Square Enix's online store as long as they have Digital River.
Definitely. I can name various reasons: - Improved gameplay and accessibility - New control schemes (touch and/or buttons) - Less repetition - Improved RPG mechanics - More songs, modes and characters
I wasn't interested in this game, then I noticed the "noble endeavour" Ramza Beoulve from Final Fantasy Tactics was in it. Trust me, he's a noble version of the typical Final Fantasy protagonist done the right way.
And i was worried event songs were removed-whew! Also, i want it, but i don't want to get it til i compete the original, because this seems superior in every way and i wouldn't touch the original again.
Not buying it for the way Square treats Nintendo and its fans. "Oh, you can't have the main series games from Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts, but you can have the spinoffs."
Nah, you WANT to buy it.... Think about it.... If you don't, then SE will be like "They ain't interested- let's make stuff for Vita, PS4 and Xbone" If we buy it... Then they'll see interest and be like "Let's bring V and VI to the new 3DS."
RE C Indeed, except we buy what they do release for Nintendo consoles and handhelds, but they still don't give us anything but things like this and the same re-releases time after time. It's a double-edged sword. We buy what they give us and they think that's all we want, so they keep giving us just that while putting out the games that actually matter on PlayStation and Xbox.
RE C And I already did that, and it damages my pocket. Bought thrid party games for Nintendo, and I didn't had enough money last year. It is like Joshua says, it is a double edge weapon.
Joshua Workman True, if we buy in we are giving money in vain. Let them release these games on Vita, they will fail. Still weird how the KH portable games are integral for the story, yet not on PSP nor Vita. We didn't even get the KH HD games on Wii U when there really wouldn't be much trouble. Heck,Ultra Street FIghter IV can easily be on Wii U.
TheSsbcandidates Indeed, but it's cool for developers to not support Nintendo, so I wouldn't get my hopes up of seeing anything like that on Wii U anytime soon. Sure, 2015 will be an amazing year for Nintendo, the Wii U in particular, and maybe we start seeing developers changing their minds and giving us something, but until then, fuck them. There's only so many dollars I can put into gaming, and while I do buy what I can for Nintendo systems, if they can put something on Wii U but simply refuse to, they don't deserve any of my money and you're right for doing the same.
This game seems better than the last one, but I think the sequel is too early. Only one or two games have come out since then and this is just the old one but better. Now I feel ripped of for buying the first
CAN SOMEONE help me please, I want to turn off summons/Chocobo/ Feature Zone and make it like the first game please help me, I want to love this game but can't stand the summons, please help!
I tried the demo. Frankly, being a newcomer to the rhythm game genere, I find ultimate difficulty to be impossible, frantic and unenjoyable. Can I still enjoy the full game without touching the ultimate, or should simply give up?
I don't ever play on ultimate (and I own both games) Its well worth buying If you like final fantasy music. The adventure mode and online multiplayer are very compelling.
Grumpy Drizzle I bought the eshop version, kinda expensive (£30) but I think its worth it - with so much content, hundreds of songs and randomly generated "quests" which you share with other players. My only small gripe is that almost every feature you have to unlock by playing the game for a while. even the ability to turn off the chime sfx (which I v much recommend doing)
Fix your online battles like seriously, I beat a lvl 99 guy online fair and square and he disconnected and I ended up not getting the points I deserved! you should make it that however disconnects loses and lose points, just like Pokemon X/Y
Can someone please explain to me why they all look like Pikachu? They could have come up with so many more 'cute' styles that actually resemble a human, and instead they do this. Seriously, the eyes, nose, mouth and cheeks... Why do they all have to look like rodents??
I love final fantasy, obviously as you can see from my youtube name.. but this game is kinda strange, doesn't seem very appealing from the gameplay it showed, it reminds me of those stupid useless phone game apps that are no good. I also am kinda confused on how they're doing this, I thought square enix and sony were like idk.. making ff7/ff8+ all exclusive to playstation.. and this is coming on the 3ds.. I guess this is an exception or something. I might get it just because I love FF, but I'm still waiting for the FF7 remake.
FF 7, FF 8, FF 11 FF 13 and FF 14 are not playstation exclusive. FF 7 and FF8 are for PS1 and PC FF 11 for PS2, XBox and PC FF 13 for PS3 and Xbox FF 14 for PS3, PS4 and PC
Yeah I know the whole xbox and pc involve thing, exclusive is a wrong term for it, but what I mean is.. it's not apart of nintendo unlike the old ones.. I guess it's not a copyright thing, it's just what square enix prefers the characters and systems to be on.
TheSsbcandidates They never change facial expression. They don't show happiness. They don't show sadness. They don't show any sign of emotion. They are staring deep, deep into my soul.
Look, I am from mexico. For years I have seen things that are and have been normal for me, but when I show them to people from the US or some other part of the world. They see them as weird and/or bizzarre, and that had never crossed my mind till I get told that. Now this is something Japanese, and they seem to take some European influence on this... Mexico has received Japanese stuff way before than the US and we did identify with some and other things were weird but we find them there.
Can SquareEnix just die like THQ already? It's pretty clear final fantasy is dead, it's not like they have anything else IP wise innovative or good to make.
Already got it. I thought the first one was perfect. I don't know if that's possible, but this one is MORE THAN PERFECT.
Wish Square Enix would make a Kingdom Hearts Theatrhythm.
Too little original characters. It would be great and as a huge KH fan I would support it, but they do not have enough Kingdom Hearts series Original Characters. Too many Final Fantasy and Disney ones.
Square Enix Theatrhythm would be great. Or if they want marketing, call it Final Fantasy Theatrhythm+ and just include the main games and make them take a back seat to the rest of the franchises being in the spotlight.
They should make dlc for bravely defualt and kingdom hearts music
zecke58 yes yes YES. Even if they only added the main 4 character themes from Bravely Default I'd be so happy.
zecke58 Now that is the type of DLC I would want for a 3DS game.
The fact that the Dragon Quest version never got localized makes me sad even to this day :c
Square, you have so many beloved characters and songs that aren't in FF, capitalize! Bravely Default, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Brave Fencer Musashi, bring them all in!
Square didn't create this game. Yeah, Chrono Trigger, Bravely Default and Seiken Densetsu characters would have been awesome.
Heck, the Bravely Default characters are already done in a similar Theatrhythm-esque style in their own respective game, plus the game was initially planned to be a FF-spinoff until they gave it a different name.
I love that they have Edgar holding the chainsaw at around 1:38.
Already bought it yooooooooooo! It's so good.
Me too Echidna! Just got it in the mail an hour and a half ago! It's so good!
High Fives! Fun Times!
Check out the DLC~ You get free songs for launch celebration. Including the amazing "Rose of May"!
Thanks, I was immediately upset that Rose of May didn't play in the Museum, at least not in the Collecticard part. Maybe it's somewhere else in the game.
When will the dlc stop being free? : o
On the first one the controls were horrible. The 3ds screen really struggled and the screen kept not responding on the arrows which lost me so many all criticals. But this one is amazing. Lots of new songs, new characters, new modes and significantly improved controls. It os very much worth getting. It is now my favorite 3ds game.
Make one for Zelda
Square doesn't own Zelda.
ripley4O77 He meant for Nintendo to make one.
Yeah, I wish the theatrhythm series would branch out. I think the Mega Man series is perfect for this. But SquareEnix did publish it as ripley pointed out. Though a smaller studio (indies0) created it. Also, they stated this would be the last Theatrhythm game).
TheReubenthegreat meant?
myOZone Thanks.
Final fantasy has died and is in our hearts for ever, I just want another jrpg!
Just got this today. An astounding improvement over the first game(which was quite good). I just spent an hour with it. So many more songs, a quest mode and everything is much easier to unlock. Takes me back!
"Over 60 characters for you to choose for your party!"
Doesn't help that they all look the same.
Blue and white hair really do look the same.. A sword and a chainsaw look the same.. Black and white skin look the same..
Same dumb looking face
Same dumb looking animations
Same dumb looking game
Same dumb looking fans defending this
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And that's JRPGs for you!
TheStolken B-but the faces... are soo Cuuute.
MrRoMaGi
I find it horrifying.
Someone was talking at 1:50 .... I have no idea what the voice said. but I thought I heard a 'kupo'?
if you look really closely during the 60 character part you can see sephiroth in the far back.
@ESRB: Mild "launguage"? More like mild checking for proper use of launguage.
Can't wait for my copy to arrive in the mail next week.
Nobody asked for a rhythm final fantasy game... But I want it
oh...
i did as well. Played the first one and loved it.
I did :P
Make another dissiddia game for the vita.
They need to get past FF13 before they can do that.
14 isn't enough.
That would be great, but tolvan has a point.
you're saying that on Nintendo's channel?
***** does it matter?
larryminzy well it's odd
This may be a day-one buy for me.
I preordered limited edition of this.
A bit too pricey for a rhythm game, but the game itself still looks good. I'll grab it either on sale or used.
Don't forget that the game itself has over 200 full songs from Final Fantasy franchise. That is more than worth every penny you spent on the game.
Souma Yukihira Sure, but I also own most of the games that have the song anyways, so there's little point in me buying the games for the songs I already technically own. It looks like an excellent game though, and I'm a huge HUGE sucker for rhythm games. 39.99 is just a wee bit much for the game portion. However, it's probably an excellent deal for people not in my situation.
"I'll grab it on sale or used"
That's what I thought about the first Theatrhythm game, ended up being harder to find afterward than I thought, still goes for around €30 nowadays (here in Europe/the Netherlands, at least).
captain toad treasure tracker trailer PLEASE! I'm waiting for new content on one of my favorite games in the year!
Can someone who has played this game answer this question? Does playing this game spoil some of the other Final Fantasy games? I've only played 10 and I'm play through 13 now. I love the music of these games and I want to play the game but some of the cut scenes seem to play spoilers from other FF games. Should I be worried about this?
0:34 Stop taunting me damnit !
wait a minute Ramza and Agrias they dint forget about FF tactic
Guys, do you know which song is the one played at 1:48? It reminds me of Seymour Battle Theme but I am pretty sure it is not.
I've got this game :>
I've already forgotten that I should also get it. XD
So I preordered the collectors edition from Square Enix's store. The only problem? Digital F*cking River. I've bought a couple things from their store and ran into problems (delays, cancellations,etc.) every single time. This is the last time I will ever use Square Enix's online store as long as they have Digital River.
I saw Zack Fair on the thumbnail, only reason I am watch this.
so that's what moogle sounds like
I enjoyed the first and I'll try to pick this up.
Is this game worth getting if you already bought the first one?
Yeah. This version is way better than the first one.
Definitely. I can name various reasons:
- Improved gameplay and accessibility
- New control schemes (touch and/or buttons)
- Less repetition
- Improved RPG mechanics
- More songs, modes and characters
I have both . Definitely buy the new one. It's extremely compelling!
The online battles are great.
I wasn't interested in this game, then I noticed the "noble endeavour" Ramza Beoulve from Final Fantasy Tactics was in it. Trust me, he's a noble version of the typical Final Fantasy protagonist done the right way.
1:44 *warning my cause the players to want to strangle any thing that moves.
1:03 IT's TOGEMON!
This looks a bit like a poor man's Project Diva
...But it's probably still more fun than All The Bravest
Alguém aqui em 2020?
want... NEED
woaa! Music of final fantasy!
This looks kinda fun
No more Smashtember videos? At this rate, there's not going to be very many before the month is over... :(
I just got this game today but my 3ds is being fixed so I can't play it yet...
And i was worried event songs were removed-whew! Also, i want it, but i don't want to get it til i compete the original, because this seems superior in every way and i wouldn't touch the original again.
Im waiting my limited edition of this master piece ! *---*
Wow, FF3 Boss Theme getting some love ^^
yeah! blinded by light!
Still waiting for Gunvolt European release...
Nintendo cuando saldra Yugioh world duel carnival en America?
what the name of the song at 0:51
final fantasy 3 battle theme
final fantasy 3- boss battle theme
What r u...a lion?!
Zack? Aerith? What are you jokesters doin' here? :D

The only problem with this game is that is Overpriced in Mexico...
70dlls in the E-Shop...
They could bring this game to Switch
I’ve played it recently I wish it was on more then the 3ds if it were I’d have over 100 hours in it by now probably
This is an actually really good game
God this is cute yet rated t
0:55 Mikasa?
so now my iphone game is on the wii then?
I wish they made one for Pokémon
Summoned beast battle !!!!!!!!
I hope there'll be a Legend of Zelda rhythm game soon :D
We'll this is new?
This game seems better than the last one, but I think the sequel is too early. Only one or two games have come out since then and this is just the old one but better. Now I feel ripped of for buying the first
How is it too early? First one came out like what? 2012? It's already been 2 years.
Souma Yukihira
I finished unlocked everything in the first one about a couple of months ago. I'm hoping this will last me about the same length.
TacticalTheatrical This one will be tougher than the first one tho. Too much stuffs to do. And ultimate mode are harder too.
Souma Yukihira
I noticed that. I want to say everything went up a difficulty. Basic feels like Expert from the first one.
The real question to ask if you feel ripped off is, how many of the songs from the first game are on here?
Well, time to tear my hair out trying to get all S Ranks on all the songs.
'Whispers into your ear' it goes up to SSS.
Here's a hint: Turn off items and skills. Gave a boost in the first one. Haven't double checked this one yet however
lokik21 I thought that only boosted the Rhythmia thing at the end of songs, not the score. I don't remember thought.
Dohiwario I've gotten a perfect score while using items, you don't need to turn off items and skills to get a triple SSS rank.
nintendo rules
I didn't play the last game, but... Ultimate Scores are pretty hard. (I played the demo only DON'T JUDGE ME!)
CAN SOMEONE help me please, I want to turn off summons/Chocobo/ Feature Zone and make it like the first game please help me, I want to love this game but can't stand the summons, please help!
Maybe. There's other games I want more.
I tried the demo. Frankly, being a newcomer to the rhythm game genere, I find ultimate difficulty to be impossible, frantic and unenjoyable. Can I still enjoy the full game without touching the ultimate, or should simply give up?
I don't ever play on ultimate (and I own both games)
Its well worth buying If you like final fantasy music.
The adventure mode and online multiplayer are very compelling.
SteveFusionX
That's reassuring.
Grumpy Drizzle
I bought the eshop version, kinda expensive (£30) but I think its worth it - with so much content, hundreds of songs and randomly generated "quests" which you share with other players.
My only small gripe is that almost every feature you have to unlock by playing the game for a while. even the ability to turn off the chime sfx (which I v much recommend doing)
I don't even care for final fantasy, but this looks great!
They just gone force me to buy a 3ds.
Imagine if Nintendo made a similar game but with Nintendo's franchises! Zelda, Mario, Metroid, DK, Golden Sun, F-zero, Xenoblade etc etc. :O
hope those songs dont cost any $
I'm confused why this is rated t while the previous is rated e10
Because HD Tifa in a cutscene.
BOO
NO RHYTHM THIEF SEQUEL
Fix your online battles like seriously, I beat a lvl 99 guy online fair and square and he disconnected and I ended up not getting the points I deserved! you should make it that however disconnects loses and lose points, just like Pokemon X/Y
That's just silly. I love it.
There better be Liberi Fatali or One Winged Angel,etc. because the songs shown seem too easy.
And they aren't showing Ultimate mode in the trailer....
Try Battle of the 4 fiends from IV in Ultimate mode...
That's also the easiest of 3 difficulties.
RE C
Challenge Accepted.
Edit: I made it 60% through!
looks like Osu
Hello
I lovwe it :D
Mild launguage lmao...
kinda looks like an OSU! rpg
Can someone please explain to me why they all look like Pikachu?
They could have come up with so many more 'cute' styles that actually resemble a human, and instead they do this. Seriously, the eyes, nose, mouth and cheeks... Why do they all have to look like rodents??
Eu acho que a Nintendo poderia desativar os comentários, pois comwntários como "First" ou "Check my channel" são ridículos.
o pior de tudo que vc foi o FIRST !
I love final fantasy, obviously as you can see from my youtube name.. but this game is kinda strange, doesn't seem very appealing from the gameplay it showed, it reminds me of those stupid useless phone game apps that are no good.
I also am kinda confused on how they're doing this, I thought square enix and sony were like idk.. making ff7/ff8+ all exclusive to playstation.. and this is coming on the 3ds.. I guess this is an exception or something. I might get it just because I love FF, but I'm still waiting for the FF7 remake.
FF 7, FF 8, FF 11 FF 13 and FF 14 are not playstation exclusive.
FF 7 and FF8 are for PS1 and PC
FF 11 for PS2, XBox and PC
FF 13 for PS3 and Xbox
FF 14 for PS3, PS4 and PC
Yeah I know the whole xbox and pc involve thing, exclusive is a wrong term for it, but what I mean is.. it's not apart of nintendo unlike the old ones.. I guess it's not a copyright thing, it's just what square enix prefers the characters and systems to be on.
Characters Y u so creepy?
How are they creepy?
TheSsbcandidates They never change facial expression. They don't show happiness. They don't show sadness. They don't show any sign of emotion. They are staring deep, deep into my soul.
Look, I am from mexico. For years I have seen things that are and have been normal for me, but when I show them to people from the US or some other part of the world. They see them as weird and/or bizzarre, and that had never crossed my mind till I get told that. Now this is something Japanese, and they seem to take some European influence on this... Mexico has received Japanese stuff way before than the US and we did identify with some and other things were weird but we find them there.
Why did this blatant cash grab need to be made?
Oh wait, I think I just answered my own question.
how is this a cash grab? the first game came out in 2012
how is this a cash grab? the first game came out in 2012
But it's legit good.
Can SquareEnix just die like THQ already? It's pretty clear final fantasy is dead, it's not like they have anything else IP wise innovative or good to make.
"rhyrhm meets RPG"
Square,staph pls.
STAPH IT.
This looks kinda boring after the last one..
I thout final fantazy is way more better then this
Eu acho que a Nintendo poderia desativar os comentários, pois comwntários como "First" ou "Check my channel" são ridículos.
