Takuya Matsumoto, the producer behind the well-received The Last Story, has revealed that Nintendo provided a huge amount of input when it came to designing the action RPG. Matsumoto says that Nintendo took the bulk of unnecessary parts found throughout the game and generally refined them.
“There were a whole lot of requests from Mario Club. In a way, what we created was fine, but it was still rough around the edges. But I think by going through Nintendo, it really took out the unnecessary parts and refined it as a game. Refinement is one of the most important aspects. The Nintendo influence was big, in a good way; at the same time it gave me confidence that if I really pushed my boundaries harder, then I can get to this level on my own.”
Hopefully he brings a title to WiiU, and release it out of Japan.
is that the new controller for wii?
It’s not JUST a controller, its for THE new Wii U Console, not the Wii.
Don’t feed the trolls, it’s the only thing keeping them from losing the little bit of a life they have.
No, but that joke is boring now, youve re-used it more than family guy uses their “jokes”
I find it funny that his name is Peteriuss
Its funnier that about 4 other people have the same usename as well
Family Guy still makes me laugh. That’s why I still watch it.
Meh. It was good in the first seasons, but after the shock factor wore off it went downhill.
Not Simpsons downhill, but, mediocre
You’re a Bad TROLL, A VERY BAD TROLL
whats the fun in going to a nintendo fans site for trolling
Dude, SERIOUSLY… >:(
It’s a new controller specially design for the Nintendo Wii.
No hardware update necessary (except for the whole controller)! And the best thing is that the Wii its self doesn’t even need a system update though the internet!
So even if you do not have a working internet connection you will be able the use the new Wii controller.
The controller has a built in DVD player and a 53,3 hour battery (rechargeable of course).
The new Wii controller with be hitting shelves this Friday for a great price of $79,99 making it a must have since it has built in GPS and the newest Flash and java making it possible to watch almost every video online.
The controller has received great scores so far. 98.78/98,79 was the worst so far!
Even if you do not have the money right now just wait till Christmas since we almost have Christmas. You only have to brush you teeth 5 more times till Christmas and only 4 baths till Christmas!
It’s a game changer.
yes. definitely. just go buy the controller and try to use it with a normal wii -_-
Nintendo should become No.1 home console for all JRPG Games, cuz it’s where all the magic happens! :D
Very true, RPG’s are becoming non existant these days out of Japan other than Final Fantasy (zzzzz)
Check out Ni No Kuni though, its a ps3 title, but its also made by Studios Ghibli who made Spirited Asay and Ponyo, looks awesome
And that game Ironically bombed Hard in Japan(mostly for being in the wrong console, the fans of the DS version felt dissapointed), in fact any not RPG that is not Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and a Degree, the Mario Branded one, Bomb pretty hard now
Im not talkig about the DS version? Im talking about the PS3 version
both version bombed, Originally Level-5 promise and make Ad’s that both game will Interacted, but with the Home Version being in PS3 THAT BECOME IMPOSSIBLE ,and worse, the ‘portable’ version demand the use of a ‘magic book’ for the puzzle, killing the portability
Is true that the game manage to sell 500K, but much of those were in the bargaing Bin at 15$ for title, making easy to give it as a ‘cheap gift’
Okay, but who gives a fuck?
I was talkig about JRPG’s being released out of Japan, with the guy above, not how well i did in Japan, i dont care how well it did, i just giving him an example of one thats being released
Which is on the right console in terms of JRPG’s
I love anything of Studio Ghibli, they make such perfect movies.
@JD: Yes. I think Nintendo has the biggest audience for JRPGs. I really love a good JRPG. Just finished replaying FFX and Chrono Trigger. Now I’m replaying the original Final Fantasy for NES.
^ Example of a true hardcore gamer
Definitely. I hate how so many people only think stuff like cod is hardcore. Those people are really missing out. My old roommate even could only pick out civilization or one of the sim city games (I forget which) as a non shooter hardcore title. Oh, and he said Madden was hardcore. But serioisly, can you really consider series with new entries every year hardcore? And how the Hell can you say playing these aren’t. This is the real deal. Much respect
^ This
If its a party/family games its casual.
Everything else is core, or multiplayer. Nobody with a brain can tell me Rayman Legends isnt core, that games hard as shit, but its still a multiplayer too
You should get a 3ds!!!! and play kid icarus against me!
I would love to, but I can only afford to support 1 gaming machine a generation. So I’m hoping to buy a Wii U.
Thats kinda sad, but im looking forward to play ssb4 against you
^ this
Everyone on this site who isnt a dick troll or fanboy should have them added on WiiU.
dude add me

I LOVE FINAL FANTASY… only for the NES though… i don’t like Final Fantasy+3d
My list:
1st Final Fantasy V
2nd Final Fantasy VI
3rd Final Fantasy IV
I agree with this list. Nothing like the classic Final Fantasy games. Chrono Trigger is still the best rpg of all time imo.
So That explain why the Antagonist looks equal to Ganondorf(simple ganondorf take the role when Ghiraim remplace him in Skyward Sword) and the very ‘Nintendo of Japan’ Humor and Yay(with Syrenne)
In general as The Last Story is a co-owned IP, maybe if both Nintendo or Mistwalker have interest, we going to see other Spiritual Sucessor of that one in Wii U or 3DS.
Should have brought it to Wii U
Pretty sure that game came out well over a year ago in Japan. On the bright side, that means they’re probably a good bit in on their next project. An awesome RPG for the Wii U maybe? Sequel or spirit sequel, I’ll take either. Game looks great
So Last Story is a new Nintendo IP on the Wii that will be localized in America? In any case it looks like a great game that I will buy as soon as possible.

I just finished xenoblade so I can’t wait to play this one too.
Although this has been out in Europe for a few months now, it has somehow passed me by. Must check it out, it looks fascinating! :)

Till what? Till it releases over here?!
Ho crap, I can’t wait!
