Final Fantasy IV Sequel Wii-bound

Upon visiting IGN today, I noticed that there was an article announcing that the sequel to Final Fantasy IV was going to be coming to Wiiware in the near future...apparently, the game was already released before, but I've never actualy heard of it. In fact, I never even did get a chance to play IV, although I've heard a lot of good things...does anyone know about this game? And is anyone excited? Here's the article if anyone wants a look:

Final Fantasy IV Sequel Heads to Wii
The Japanese mobile phone game is coming to America.

February 27, 2009 - Did you know there was a sequel to Final Fantasy IV released on mobile phones in Japan? It's true! Looks like American gamers will be getting a chance to play it, too, as a synopsis for Final Fantasy IV: The After Years has popped up at the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB). En route to the Wii, the sequel is described as a 2D role-playing game involving -- what else? -- magic crystals. Players adventure across an overworld map and delve into dungeons, getting caught up in turn-based battles along the way with leopards, birds, and monster fish (the worst kind of fish).

Final Fantasy IV: The After Years will be rated "E" for everyone and includes references to alcohol and mild fantasy violence. No release date is available at this time. The fact that it was a mobile phone game in Japan makes a WiiWare release possible.

Man I wonder what will the sequel look like. If it involves some of the charracters in FF IV then I wonder how it will be and where they will go. In FF IV you went to the underground and to the moon also so i wonder what new they added on this one.

I'm excited about this title. Some more exclusive content for the Wii is never a bad thing. I didn't know it was previously a mobile game, but that's OK. I'm currently making my way through the Final Fantasy IV remake on the DS at the moment, so hopefully I'll have that game finish before After Years releases.

I do know that the game is supposed to be 16-bit, just like back on the SNES.

16 bit doesnt matter for me as long as the gameplay is good enough. Afterall FF VI and chrono trigger were 16 bit but still some of the greatest RPGs yet.
