I remember reading that Sony bought shares in Square and saved them from closing during this time. This is part of the reason why several games stayed as console exclusives and in the case of Final Fantasy 9, they didn't even release it on Windows as it stayed a Playstation 1 exclusive until 2016. And ten years without talking is just a silly overstatement. Chocobo Land: A Game of Dice came out in 2002 for the Gameboy Advance along with Crystal Chronicles on the Gamecube in 2003. The years of not communicating would be 1997 - 2002, maybe even 2001 if that's when developement started.
