Set Phrases for FFCC: Echoes of Time

Set Phrases for FFCC: Echoes of Time on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

The online-enabled FFCC: Echoes of Time will break the language barriers by using canned phrases.

The world of online-play has benefitted the gaming world massively, but with people speaking many different languages it could be problematic - especially in a game where team play is crucial. To prevent players being forced to work with local residents, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time will seamlessly churn out set phrases in your selected language, much like Nintendo's variety: "Hi, there!", "Good luck", "woah" - it may not be pretty, but it'll work.

Thanks to Siliconera.

That sucks, it would be awesome if you could say whatever you want, It can't be that hard they added it on the Gameboy Advance SP when you chatted with people.

Super Duper Ultra Fun Time!

Actually it's 'Whoa!' instead of 'woah'. It's not as bad as you think. Smilie

I hope they have practical stuff and not just some friendly chatter. We need stuff like fall back, attack, heal me, let's get this enemy first.

Thats kinda lame, but I do love Crystal Chronicle games so I will definetely get this when it comes out Smilie

Well if it's just for random match ups then ok fair enough but friend lists should be allowing proper text or picto chat

It could also be to help sustain Nintendo's family friendly image, just look at the Scrabble furore. The British public still isn't ready to accept bad or offensive language for youngsters (even though they use if all the fucking time. Bloody dipshits the whole pissing lot of em) so a mechanism that prevents the DS getting into the Guardian is a good thing from Nintendo's point of view.

The easy answer to swearing is to swap real swearwords with words captain haddock would use;
