'Crystal Tools' is the new name of Square Enix's company-wide 3-D game development engine, and it'll support Wii.

gamesindustry.biz: Do you have specific plans for [the Wii]?

Yoichi Wada: Actually with the Wii, we also appreciate the core gamers - fans of Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest (Games like DQS and Chocobo?). But we have various types of games, with content to satisfy the various types of consumers - not only casual games, but something like learning titles, for travelling, for wine.  WHAT? No thanks.

So we're ready to offer various types of content to various types of users.

Basically what this means is that Wada realizes that there are core gamers on the Wii and they'd be fans of DQ and FF and such. He says they have a variety of games that ranges from different genres and different demographics. They're going to have core games on it and some casual games on it (like the DS) to satisfy different users.

ALSO, do you guys know what the signifigance of press releases are? THEY LIST GAMES THAT ARE ANNNOUNCED.  Where are Soul Eater and FFCC:CB then? Just because a Wii game from them wasn't in the press release (which, like I said, ONLY contains announced games) DOESN"T mean they have nothing in development I know they may have something in development, but those traveling, wine and learning titles are not what people expect from a company like SE. If they had nothing in development, please explain why they ported over the Crystal Tools engine? Maybe to finish FFCC:CB like it was shown on the second trailer, because the first trailer was no doubt shovelware. Still why did they port the engine if they dont plan on showing games that use it, instead they made Soul Eater, which isn't shown either.

Agito IS in the FF XIII world. All FF XIII games are in the FF XIII would but have different stories and such. I know you didn't this time, but you always say that SE had 6 games planned in the FFXIII universe, got the link?? I couldn't find it anywhere.
