While all of us are gushing over the portable awesomeness of The World Ends With You, the company behind it, Square-Enix , also responsible for the highly popular Final Fantasy series plans to take a direction that would , in my opinion, see more remakes of every Final Fantasy game to date.
It seems that their 2007 profits weren’t too good with their highly lucrative overseas market bearing most of the brunt. According to Destructoid:
…according to company president Yoichi Wada, who recently issued an ultimatum to his staff: if any games are made that don’t fit into the mainstream’s circle of interest, job cuts will follow. So long, unique concepts that break the mold!
Is this the beginning of the EA-ization of everyone’s favorite maker of role-playing games? Only time will tell.
