Nintendo DS? Where does it say that? The link used as a referance makes no mention of it being for the DS, and neither does the actual article. It just has the title and says to wait for more information in a follow up report soon. You shouldn't jump to conclusions that'll be for the DS just because it has "A2" in the title.

Who knows what system it will be on, but what is it likely going to be on? The PSP have one already, and A2, or advance 2 is clearly meant to mean its somewhat of a sequel to the original, which was on the GBA so its seems logical to think that. I didn't write it, so if you don't want it there just type the site in google and let it translate for you before removing it. CanCanDuo 21:02 Demcember 15 2006 (UTC)

The GBA never inspired SE whatsoever. They put DQIX on the DS because it was so much more successful for them than the GBA was. - A Link to the Past (talk) 03:49, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Of course the DS is more successful for square enix to make games on than the GBA. I simply said that the A2 seams like a sequel to the original Tactics Advance and likely for the DS. CanCanDuo 15:42, December 19 2006 (UTC)

References to the Nintendo DS should be removed for now as only claim so far is that according to people who went to Jump Festa, at the end of Ivalice Alliance trailers it said FFTA2 will be for the DS. This is not a reliable source. We should wait until reputable gaming magazines report it. --Kusunose 08:04, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Removed. When you restore it, please cite reliable sources. --Kusunose 09:21, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

I have found a source for this in Japanese media and restored the references. Can someone find English one so that everyone can verify? --Kusunose 12:00, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

The official subtitle of the game is "Grimoire of the Rift", according to Square Enix's trademark (here, I don't know if it works correctly). Someone needs to change the name of the article, then! Zanasea 15:13, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

A trademarked subtitle doesn't mean much. Square Enix has been sitting on a "Chrono" trademark title for a couple of years now. We'll have to wait until Square Enix gives an official English name before changing the article's name. LanceHeart 19:40, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, I don't think the example of Chrono is very appropriate this time. We know FFTA2 was announced, that its name contains the word "grimoire" and another one ("fuuketsu") which means something about a sealed cave, and that "Grimoire of the Rift" is very close to it (the "rift" being this mysterious "fuuketsu"). I consider this is proof enough, but well, you are probably right, we need to wait for an official announcement. Zanasea 21:09, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Could the 'fuuketsu/rift' be referring to some sort of portal between the real world and Ivalice? It'd make sense, because a book (a grimoire, to be precise) is what caused the real world to change into the fantasy world of Ivalice in Tactics Advance. SilverCalibur 18:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Nintendo Power announced it was for DS in Vol. 213 mattiator 03:24, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] It is a sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

I had added a sentence "It is a sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance" with references and it was removed twice. The reasons of removal ware "Square Enix does not acknowledge that there is any connection in the contuinity of the games" and "SE has never said that it's a sequel." However, according to references I had added (Famitsu and IT Media), in Dec 18, Square Enix had announced that they are developing Final Fantasy Tactics A2 and it is a sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. As I have commented, gpara.com[1], Dengeki Online[2] also reported it and none of them used wording that suggests they are just speculating. --Kusunose 15:42, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
