Is releasing it on xbox one really a smart idea?

[mistydolphin 25]

First off, let me clarify. Im not against it. But thinkabout this... The havent released ANY kingdom hearts games on an xbox system before. Many xbox gamers probably wont even know what kingdom hearts is. I mean if theyre are releasing the biggest installment yet for it, they probably couldve released the hd remixes forxbox 360 as well, just so they could catch up.

No, it doesn't make any sense but they're doing it anyway.

Money. That is all.

True, but i think theyd waste more money making it, just for minimal.profit

Nomura has already said in interviews KH3 will have something to help people get caught up on the story

 

 

True, but i think theyd waste more money trying it, than they would by making it.

porting it won't cost them much money, even if the game sells poorly on the XB1 it'll almost definitely make its money back. Even if it doesn't, it inflates the overall number of sales, which is important to companies

I honestly hope so. Otherwise theyll be wracking their brains just to keep up.

 

well, whatever works for them. like i said, im not against it, im just questioning their logic a little.

It's very easy to port PS4 games to Xbox One. The hardware is very similar.

As long as it doesnt slow the overall release date TOO MUCH, than im all for it then.

Won't slow it at all.

[mistydolphin 25]

Won't slow it at all.

Let them proceed then.

It's not very logical, but as long as it can make them a few bucks why wouldn't they?

[Connected 978]

It would make logic if they released 1.5 and 2.5 for the Xbox One.

[hatok 6,413]

Won't slow it at all.

well that's not true, it'll have SOME effect, itll just be negligible

forget the hardware. the engine the game is on(UE4) is designed for both platforms.

What profit would Square earn if they put the remixes on the 360? The disc data capacity as most people know for the 360 is a lot less than the PS3 so Square would not only have to worry about putting them on not just one disc, but two possibly three separate discs. Then there is just the gap between the hardware on both consoles, sure the PS4 and Xbone are similar in hardware, so much that KH3 is going to be on both platforms. That's not the case with the PS3 and 360. Why go through the whole hassle of porting these game for a last gen console on a platform that isn't necessarily fond of JRPGs. Look at FFXIII, the first FF to be released on an Xbox console. Compared to the PS3's version it sold like crap. FF is unarguably bigger than KH, how well do you think a re-release of these games would do on this console? To me, if the remixes haven't showed up on any Xbox console, there might be that possibility that they never will.
