Hey does anyone know what Sakaguchi's exact beef with Sony and Playstation is? He seems pretty determined to never make a game for PS. Is it simply due to Sony and SE's old relationship and the fact he left them? |
No one knows. He said he hated Ken Kutaragi and the PS3 was too hard to work on.
Some say he didnt like that Sony bailed Square when they faced money problems especially after the FF bombed and it
coasted a lot of money (which he was resposible for) and Microsoft wanted to buy them out.
Some Say he hated Square & Sony long relationship and how FF wast kept a PS exclusive.
No one know what the Couse of the problems, but since Ken left Sony people thought he will come around & make a game on
PS3/PSP after that but he never did.

Sakaguchi has mentioned he doesn't like how Ken would make hardware at the cost of software ease. Though at this point, I think Sakaguchi has a lot more problems than his hatred for Sony. I mean, I think The Last Story would have sold quite a bit better on the PS3 (Not necessarliy as an exclusive). But alas, his decisions has led to IOS development, and most likely bankruptcy in a few years time.

I can understand the bolded if that is the case, but what about the PSP and Vita, Vita is said to be the easiest system to develop for in years? He has developed for 360,DS,Wii but blatently skipped Playstation(oddly enough the consoles who userbase would complement his fanbase the most). Sort of silly when you think about it. Whatever his problem, he should get over it. He has made 2 failures sales wise(Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey) and one so so one critically but not blowing up the the sales charts(The Last Story). He could do so much better.If he attempts to do another traditional JRPG style game like LO on WiiU, he might just be able to find some success again. iOS bullshit is not where real gaming is going and it will be a fad(Just like guitarhero esque games, motion gaming).
@Nen-Suer
Why would he have a problem with the fact Sony saved them from going bankrupt after his flop movie? Thats a strange reason(even stranger still is how SE treats Playstation these days after they did that). And I thought i heard something it was NIN old top execs had beef with Sakaguchi and SE as a whole after the FF switch, hence the reason they had not put another mainline on the system yet after the new blood came in they started at least doing spin offs.
