Having triple triad wouldn't boost XIV's popularity because FFVIII wasn't one of the more popular FF games. They already stated they're going to have a gold saucer type arena, which will no doubt turn out something like the Casino area in XIII-2.

Besides, TM was better in terms of playability, TT had too many factors (contagious rules) that ruined a good concept. In an MMO you can have groups of players purposefully making 1 rule present that benefits them in every encounter, this is why they went with TM for XI, it's just a shame they never went through with the in-game portion of it.
