Yet here you are leaving Nintendo out as if their actions didn’t also push Square to move on to a publisher that’s not as draconic and greedy with third parties, as it is well known Nintendo was during that time.
The parties involved in the Squaresoft and Nintendo falloff doesn’t only include Sony and Squaresoft. It also includes Nintendo. And that’s a side that you more often than not leave out, because it doesn't match with your one-sided narrative.
Nintendo were asking more money from third parties than Sony. If placed with the choice to buy a car for 30k and then you see the same exact car for 20k, would you buy the one for 30k simply because you have a somewhat long history with the seller? No. You’d think the seller takes you for granted and tries to rip you off . This is basically what Nintendo did with third parties back then. The history is well known and documented.

What sources do you have that Nintendo's greedy policies has any effect on Square? You must've forgotten that Nintendo essentially took all the risk of publishing ALL the final fantasies in the US. How greedy, really.
It's curious that you lecture me about seeing one side of the coin, yet here you are doing the same. It's curious how you lecture Rol about not providing sources, yet here you are doing the same. Perhaps it's time you stepped it down a peg, you're just as biased as everyone here.

How more predictable can you get?
Look it up yourself. It’s well established and well known that Nintendo asked for a bigger royalty cut than anyone else at the time. Even someone like you must already know that. And wouldn’t you know, Sony also published early Squaresoft games in the west.
Keep the wha wha wha coming.
