Thing's started to go wrong for Square Enix after they switched from Nintendo to Sony. Bad Decision.

Right, the platform where their games reached the height of popularity. Oh man, what are you smoking?

"Cry moar" weed.

SE would be nothing without Sony, and if you weren't such a fanboy you'd see that.

No they'd still be a huge company, just that Final Fantasy (and subsquently, Kingdom Hearts, Star Ocean 3, etc.) wouldn't be as popular in NA. Final Fantasy 7 is responsible for kickstarting the West to buying JRPGs.

Not nearly as big though. The Sony advertising campaign for FF7 is a total legend... one responsible for making the west buy JRPG's indeed. And one responsible for Square rising sky-high in places other than Japan.

 

I would argue that it was this success that caused Squaresoft to get the big head and blow all their money on that shitty Final Fantasy movie, which of course resulted in them merging with Enix. So, in a very roundabout way, Sony ruined Square.

 

Way to spin things around =D

I love your posts dude.
