Kingdom Hearts 3/ Xbox One

[Columned-Munny 274]

I'm of the opinion that it really isn't about brand loyalty or where KHIII would be 'best' on so much as it is money. The PS4 and X1 have very, very similar architecture, thus lowering the development costs for making the game cross platform between them; the more disparity between platforms, the more time and money goes into making the alternate version.

 

By that same token the Wii U is very different and performs very differently than its next-gen competitors. With a significant investment the port would be watered-down, and Square doesn't have the money to pour into a more niche version of a multiplatform game.

[Demyx. 10,064]

I take incredible offense to that!! 

No, I don't really. I just think that the Wii-U being less powerful would mean extra time spent on developing a completely separate Wii-U version, or it just being a non-perfect port. Like how a lot of Wii versions of PS3/360 games weren't fantastic. I could be completely wrong though, who knows. Also, with the Wii-U's current sales and install base, Square wouldn't be very enticed to make a version for it. 

Oh I'm not saying kh3 should be on Wii U. I'm just saying It's not a bad system.

[rikunobodyxiii 700]

I think that that would make more sense.

Why?

All good then!

Nobody will get XBOX One for Kingdom Hearts 3 anyways...

And what if I told you I was going to buy, KH3 on the Xbox1? I'm kinda annoyed by how some people on here are mad or just sickened by the fact that KH3 is on Xbox1... Like it doesn't affect you anyway, it's still going to be on your dearly beloved PS4. So what if it isn't a Exclusive? Exclusives are just down right dumb as well. And what makes me even more angry is the fact is that people just like to talk crap about the Xbox1 here, yet it hasn't been release yet? So that just makes the PS4 automatically better? We may know the specs, but we truly don't know what they're both capable of, once we have it on hands. Honestly people needs to stop being a fanboys.

[KH4Real 749]

It is proven that the WiiU can handle the directx11.

It is mayby cause the WiiU is too cheap then PS4/X1.

 

I read that the rumor is btw false. And that they never said it.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously man thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kingdomlanelover 494]

I hate mindless arguing.. The Wii U will NEVER be as powerful as the PS4 and Xbox One, and it's not a mistake on Square's part because even if one KH3 game gets sold for the Xbox, then it's still a success. Kingdom Hearts 3 is going to sell many copies, regardless if it's on the PS4 or Xbox One. It doesn't matter if Square has worked with Nintendo in the past, those were handheld games, not a console game.

[gothamninja394 92]

I'm saying they've worked with Nintendo and not Microsoft since Xbox is Microsoft, so this makes perfect sense. Thats all I'm saying. Who freaking cares which is better, the point is we're getting KH3 right? Why should it matter what system its on?

I didn't say anything bad about XBOX One... But the truth is what it is. Definitely people will buy Kingdom Hearts 3 on PS4 more. If you are buying XBOX One and not PS4 and you like Kingdom Hearts then obviously you will want to get Kingdom Hearts 3 for XBOX One.

 Like I said, we're getting KH3 right? Doesnt really matter what system long as we all get to play the game

[Jack Weber 7]

I also want it to be a ps4 exclusive but they need the money and I'm sure Tetsyua Nomura wanted it only on ps4 as well but like I said they need money bad, but it's funny like a middle finger to Microsoft cause they don't get 1.5

[The Rocky Shoe 169]

My brother is going to buy Xbox One and my parents won't let me buy PS4. Xbox One is the only way I can play KH3.

I'm surprised they won't allow you to get a PS4, which in my opinion isn't as good as Xbox, but it is $100 cheaper I tell ya what.

The capabilities of the hardware on the Xbone is the only console out that is even close to the PS4.  The Wii and the Wii U are no where near.  The Wii U is only slightly better than the PS3, 7th Gen hardware.  The game is being created on for the PC using Direct X11.  The Wii U and handhelds mentioned can't meet the specifications.

But the PS4 and Xbone can.  We all know SE is cross platforming to make more money since they're constantly experiencing a net loss at the end of each fiscal year.

The Wii U was released early and they can see how well it's performing, compared to the millions of preorders for the PS4 and Xbone many of which have sold out.

They're not going to take the extra time to recreate the game again with lower quality just so it can be playable on other systems.  I think considering how it's being developed for the PC, they could release it also for the PC as it wouldn't require creating it all over again. 

 

End of the day

• Xbone is similar to PS4 (which we all knew it would definately be on the PS4) so wouldn't take extra effort to port to both
• Wii U can't run DirectX11 which is being used to create it, let alone the handhelds.  
• Putting a numbered title on a handheld full stop is wrong.  Especially a long awaited one like KH3.  They'll want you to experience the gameplay and graphics on a larger screen.
• It doesn't affect your game, just means that you can't gloat over your Xbone friends going "EY I CAN PLAY IT ON MY SYSTEM AND YOU CAN'T NANANA"

[The Rocky Shoe 169]

I love that it's on XB1. That was the only reason I was going to get a PS4 (even though I'll need a PS3 for 1.5 ReMix I tell ya what).

It doesn't run Directx11 but it can handle the shader effecs. It is all about the graphics.

There's your answer. X1 and PS4 use DirectX 11. Wii U doesn't. A port would take up that much more time, which, considering the poor Wii U sales, wouldn't be a good financial decision, especially when SE aren't really in the financial position to take gambles.  

[Master Juan 574]

I wish people would quit bitching about it being on the Xbox One like jesus christ it boosts production value and doesn't deteriorate from the PS4 version in anyway.

I said also it can handle it. And btw the PS4 doesn't use directx11.

[Caity 3,946]

..... ._. It can handle EQUIVALENT of it.  That means it will take MORE WORK to port it to the Wii U, meaning MORE LABOR, MORE HOURS, and MORE WAGES to be paid for something that going by the sales of the Wii U wouldn't result in a turnover successful enough to justify the extra work and wages.  They're already experiencing a net loss of millions.  Putting their money and resources into something that won't give a good result will be pointless from a business point of view.  People need to realize that making games actually takes work and to change from system to system will cost money, unless the result would be profitable, they're not going to do it.  The reason the PS4 and Xbone were picked because they were similar in hardware meaning they could make the game and easily port it over without having to rewrite the code.  And I know the PS4 doesn't use DirectX11, but it can easily be ported to the PS4 and Xbone than it can the Wii U.

I think it's a-okay for Kingdom Hearts 3 to come out on both PS4 and XB1. It's just I dun like that Microsoft fans will only be able to start with the final chapter in the Xehanort Saga.Their reason why it's not being put on the Wii U is because it doesn't support the Direct X 11. Problem is, an Indie game is being developed for Wii U, using Direct X 11. They did it because the Wii U hasn't sold much, but with big sales on they way, their minds may change.

[jorrell3946 70]

Kingdom Hearts 3 deserves to be on PS4 not XBOX ONE.

Just try to buy 2 gaming consoles worth ~400-500 both ._.

Kingdom Hearts 3 deserves to be on PS4 not XBOX ONE.

 

Why? Tell me why?

 

Ok sure the series started on the Playstation, but is that all you're going to tell me? ...But wait! Kingdom Hearts was also on Nintendo consoles as well and they don't get any hate, people want it on the WiiU. So what if Xbox Fans don't get a chance to experience the 1.5 or the 2.5 remixes of Kingdom hearts? ..What THEY don't deserve to experience a great game such as Kingdom Hearts 3 just, BECAUSE Kingdom hearts wasn't on the original Xbox?

 

So if you made a game don't you want everyone to experience a game that you made? And not be held back on a certain console?
