Suikoden VI for Wii?

Uh...so...has anyone actually confirmed this statement? That site just mentions it...it doesn't give any link or source at all. And I haven't heard of any Japanese sites that mention this statement.

Any confirmation at all? Do we need to e-mail the site and ask for a source?

Does really someone think it can be released for Xbox360?Because I'm a Suikoden addict like many other here and I have a 360 since Ps3 is very expensive.
Would be very cool since Microsoft made some good moves with producing good rpg's in the next time like Lost Odysseye or Trusty Bell.
I really was never interested in Ps3 I wanted a Wii or 360 but since the beginning I had the fear I could never ever play a new Suikoden game.
So I hope for a new installement for 360(or multiplatform) or a independant Suikoden game for PSP.

Would like to hear your thoughts :)

No..that will probably never happen because:

1 - Suikoden is an RPG that has the most fans based in Japan..
2 - Not many Japanese guys have a xbox360 nor a xbox..
3 - Japan is the most important market for konami's rpgs..

so this 3 points alone would be the reasons why a suikoden game on the xbox 360 is nearly unlikely...

Also consider:

- Konami even decided to release a suikoden 3 pal version, to not release the Gaidens and the Card Game outside of japan
- Konami didn't spend really much money in the series..and the rate of suikoden's that have been sold aren't that high.. so for konami it would be a unnecessary high risk to decide to release it on xbox360..

^ Exactly.

And you can see the whole interview at suikosource.com. It's in the future of suikoden area or something like that.

Man I hope for a PSP version someday :(

Okay, short and simple is the way of this post

1) Konami has said they are working on an RPG for Wii, this doesn't nessisarily mean Suikoden. Konami does make other games.

2) Konami has put every Suikoden to-date on Sony's Console ONLY! While there is a small probability that they may put on the Wii, they will probably make it also for PS2 (or PS3). PS2 isn't dead yet. Close, but not yet...

I'll be getting a Wii for Christmas, and I expect it to be the best thing since sliced bread. True story: Three weeks ago two of my roommates and I waited all night in front of Zellers to be the first in line to get one of the 3 PS3's that they had. They both got theirs ($915.00), and then my roommate's credit card is declined. I just about wanted to kill someone, but I kept my cool. I plan to get a PS3 down the road eventually. There's no point in getting a system that won't have any good games for two years and it'll probably be reduced by 2/3 in price by then. That also gives me time to get an HDTV, which is high on the hit list.

I tend to agree with Harekki. If they put it on the Wii, they'll probably also make a version for Blu Ray in HD on the Playstation 3. It's also probable that unless the PS3 totally tanks in the next year, by the end of the new generation it'll have the best game library of the systems, but I don't really think that people are ready for it and the Wii will dominate the next console race, in part to its price and its unique style. I've heard so many people talking about the Wii that it's crazy, and it would be stupid for Konami not to do a Suikoden game for the system, even if it is a watered-down version of a slick, cinematic PS3 make.

Question, is there an exclusivity deal between sony and konami when it comes to the suikoden main series?

Ryusei · Posted: Sun Nov 12, 2006 11:19 am Post subject:

I don't think so. Konami released Suikoden I outside of Sony, as was stated above. Plus the fact that Konami released Suikoden I in the PS first before releasing it into another console makes me think there is no "exclusivity deal" between Sony and Konami.

BTW, there won't be another PS2 Suikoden. One of the developers said as much in an interview. S5 was the last PS2 Suikoden.

It would be wise to keep the Suikoden series on its original platform because as was said above, it alienates the true veterans. Granted I know Suikoden I was released on Saturn as well, however those Saturn fans never saw the light of Suikoden II, so really those true fans must have played Suikoden II as well which was PS1 exclusive.

The series decided to stick with Sony Playstation since and changing it to another platform would disclude those fans who are loyal to Sony products. I am one of those I have to admit I am a tad biased honestly, I don't bother looking at another other system other then Playstation and most other Suikoden fans feel the exact same way.

Now however I wouldn't mind seeing a different Suikoden title on Wii, but definitely NOT Suikoden VI. Possibly like a Gaiden or similiar to Rhapsodia, but a sequel should always remain true to where it was originated from. 8-)
