Forums - Gaming - Yoichi Wada resigns as Square Enix CEO

Maybe a shuffle would make SE focus on consoles rather than iOS.

This company has been circling the drain for quite a while. I can't name one Squeenix game that I thought was "good" since FF12.

They blew entirely too much money on those epic MMO failures known as FF14 and DQ10. MMOs cost far too much money. Just look at where the Old Republic put EA.



PS4 exclusive?



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

Great, I hope the new management gets KH back to consoles, where Kingdom Hearts should be.


I think the fault there will probably be with Tetsuya Nomura. Also cause the company didnt have the resources for it as they were focusing on FFXIV:ARR.

For the record, EA made money with the old republic. The game turned profit with the boxed sales alone. Its now making good profit with their new business model that mixes P2P and F2P. It really isnt the failure many like to think. It did fail to thrive on the P2P classic model though. But WoW is also faultering in that model, altough slower. Its a model without future.

Hahaha, thats an amzing news! This moron has ruined FF brand.


I'm pretty ignorant in all this but that was my initial thought, not sure if true though (I mean FF has gone down the shitter to the depths of turdville but is he responsible?)

 

...I remember him coming on at E3 a few years ago to say FFXIII would be on the Xbox 360, that's the same guy right?

TWEWY, Bravely Default, Type-0?

Anyway, VERSUS XIII RELEASES TOMORROW!!! :P Also guys KH3 is coming back to consoles. That's why they're making Remixes on PS3,to get people up to speed. Even under Wada it's not a question.

Those decisions had to be taken by Wada himself before leaving, so if someone considers that a good step they may as well cut some slack off him. He has just stepped down.
