It's abbreviation MADNESS, I tell you. MADNESS.

Nintendo is putting some major backing into the return of Square to their consoles after a nearly ten-year absence. According to the Japanese game magazine V-Jump, by way of Magic Box, Nintendo of Japan intends to release a limited-edition NGC set with a "Crystal White" 'Cube and controller, a GBA Player, memory card, and, of course, FF:CC.

No word yet on whether this will come to US shores - in fact, it's still not official in that country with the red dot flag, but GAF has a picture of the set.

As far as I'm concerned, who really cares about the special color of the console? Unless they're also planning on selling that pack at a significant discount from what you could buy the individual pieces for, then there's no point in doing it. We'll see if it goes forward, though.

Yeah, if that new set came to U.S. shores, I wouldn't be buying one. I never got in to that whole thing about new colors for the systems. I am, however, a little miffed that the platinum GC was not around when I bought my GC. Black is fine, but I think I would have liked platinum. It would go with my GBA SP. Oh well. Maybe if mine breaks (not very likely) I'll get a platinum one.

In regards to FF:CC, I'm not looking forward to it as much as I have looked forward to other FF games. I don't get in as much of a frenzy over action/RPGs, which FF:CC is classified to be at IGN.com. I don't know, I just don't think it's going to be the greatest game and definately not the best FF. Though, I'm sure many Nintendo fanboys will try and say it is.

It's totally going to be an action/RPG. And I don't think anyone is expecting it to be the best FF. Defensive much? ^_^
