I don't believe Nintendo fans were happy either, though they probably weren't as vocal as the PlayStation crowd. Either way, the move back then was less about $ and more about fidelity (CD vs Cartridge). And back then, it was Squaresoft. |
Couldn't have been put better by any other poster than CGI- /salute.
I owned an SNES and clearly remember when Sony was supposed to have some sort of attachment for the SNES using CD as the storage media, or some crap, kinda like the Sega CD to the Genesis. I was a little upset about FFVII being on the new sony playstation, but then I just bought the system anyways, and not for FFVII at the time but for Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, and then FFVII, Twisted Metal, Legend of Dragoon, Valkyrie Profile, Legend of Legaia, Kartia, etc, etc.
Anyways back then it was Squaresoft and they focused on quality games which still were able to make them lots of money anyways. Wada probably lived in the US for a bit and adopted the greedy dumb piece of s.....t corporate America mentality. Yes the goal of any business is to make money no matter what (even "non profit" organizations make their money), but hurting a company's name is an effect that is felt long term, and we can compare the mediocre stuff $quare has been pulling off vs the past
Today: Nier, SO4, Last Remnant, FFXIII COMPARED to: Xenogears, Legend of Mana, FFVII, Chrono Trigger, Bushido Blade, Brave Fencer Musashi, Parasite Eve, Chrono Cross, Vagrant Story, Einhander (how can I forget the best shmup of all time), etc, etc. Yup the quality has fallen, but it's ok, Wada gets to laugh all the way to the bank while these forums have the 360 vs PS3 crowd over the fact that $quenix is putting out shit mp's.
P.S. Wada hangs out with the Pokemon devs it seems lol, put out a shittier product each time and people still eat it up for the name.
Make games, not war (that goes for ridiculous fanboys)
I may be the next Maelstorm or not, you be the judge http://videogamesgrow.blogspot.com/ hopefully I can be more of an asset than a fanboy to VGC hehe.
