Kojima Tells Nomura to Remake Final Fantasy VII

Twitter explodes as Square Enix and Konami VIPs get together for dinner.

Posted on 05.19.2011 at 01:07

Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima, Square Enix producer/artist Tetsuya Nomura, Square Enix CEO Yoichi Wada and Metal Gear art director Yoji Shinkawa had dinner earlier today.

What did they talk about?

According to Kojima, they talked about a Final Fantasy VII remake! After Kojima Tweeted that he was in a dinner meeting with the three, a follower asked that he tell Nomura to remake FFVII. "I passed it along," replied Kojima.

He was probably joking. Or was he?

Other things Kojima said he passed along are "Hurry up and release Kingdom Hearts 3D," "I know it's tough for Square Enix, but you can do it!" and "Tell Wada I'm waiting for Seiken Densetsu/Secret of Mana 5." Kojima did not pass along the message "I'm looking forward to the new Zelda game" that someone for some reason asked him to mention.

Kojima passed along one message without his followers' suggestion: he told Tetsuya Nomura to get a Twitter account.

While the actual topics of conversation during the meeting are probably secret (they may have just been having a friendly dinner -- it happens sometimes), we do know what was on the menu. According to Yoichi Wada's Twitter, two people had cola while two people had alcohol.

This is what Kojima ate. I don't know what it is either.

 

The bolded underlined are why Kojima is God. He just the best ideas in the whole games industry. (Besides Shigeru Myamoto of course)

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

In the state the company is in right now, I think it would be wise for them to go ahead and produce that much wanted remake.   People have been asking for it for years now, I'm quite sure it would sell like hot cakes.  They could make it for the NGP, at worse.  Which wouldn't cost them as much as if they'd make it for the PS3 or its successor.



So that many people really want to see a next gen rendering of Cloud cross dressing to win over that Don guy? Ugh...

Do whatever  you want with VII, I could care less. Just don't touch VI. It's perfect the way they are, the sprites and 16-bit graphics are beautiful.

Fixed.



List of games Square-Enix needs to make:

Chrono Break

Secret of Mana 5

FFVII remake so fans will stop bitching about it

a good Final Fantasy game

Kingdom Hearts 3

 

Shit that Square-Enix needs to stop making:

fighting games starring FF characters for PSP

terrible Kingdom Hearts games on handhelds that people buy for good games. Not games that need two analog sticks to play

ports of old games that no one cares about

remakes of old games not called "Final Fantasy VII"
