I hope this thread ain't up yet. I don't know if there's any Final Fantasy fan on this forum but oh well.
Square-Enix is the creator of the Final Fantasy franchise, with so many different Final Fantasy titles on so many different gaming consoles, they must be dirty rich. (lol just playing around) When the first Final Fantasy Dissida game came out back in August 25th 2009 on the Sony's PlayStation Portable(PSP), it sold over 910,000 copies in Japan and over here in U.S. it sold over 130,000 over the first 4 days that it came out. With Tetsuya Nomura taking the lead for the first game, he will also be taking the lead of this project for the sequel. Or shall I say the prequel of Dissidia. Final Fantasy Dissidia is basically a game that have all your favorite Final Fantasy heroes and villains. In this game you can pick which ever character you like and brawl out with other characters. The first one was a must have for Final Fantasy fans. Now the new one seems even sweeter then the first one.
This prequel will be called: Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy Duodecim
It is set to be release on March 3 2011 in Japan. Date for it's release in U.S. is still unknown.
It will be release on the PSP again.
In this prequel it will have all of the characters from the first game and including 4-10 new characters! So far 5 have been officially announced. While there's rumor of the new 6th character to be Yuna from FFX.

Square Enix release a trailer not so long ago showing us many footages of the new characters. It also tease us with a footage of someone's foot walking on water. Now that sounds familiar! Here's a screenshot of the foot:

Looks familiar? I'm saying it's Yuna from FFX! My favorite FF female character!
There's also rumor of another Final Fantasy character from the SNES era. But I don't know who it is yet.
