* So you enjoyed The World Ends With You? Too bad. You won't be seeing anything remotely like it from Square-Enix anytime soon, 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!
This was supposedly part of a heated business meeting in which Square discussed the results of their 2007 fiscal year, which were none too sunny, showing general profits down 20 percent and taking the worst of it in overseas sales.

Business is business, but I have to say my heart sank when I read those words. If Square was doing anything I was excited to see, it was things outside the Final Fantasy spectrum, but financial troubles like this certainly excise any hope of experimental titles in the future (at least until the numbers improve). I'm glad to see the giant falter a bit, if only in hopes that the results will push them towards a more focused future. *


WTF?! >=[
Does this mean that all were gonna get from these peple is Final Fantasty, Dragon quest and Kingdom Hearts (<= Naw i loves you <3)
Im not even a Dragon Quest fan and Final Fantasy in my opinion has gone downhill.
Just because of some bad sales theres no creativity now?!
the reason no ones buying is cause they keep making crappy Final Fantasy remakes and sequels and such.
I MEAN COME ON!
Do these people even now how much The World Ends With you has sold.
It was Sold out everywhere I went!!!
It was luck that my father even found it!!! >=[

Hopefully with time they will change their minds and have a turn around.
Thanks for lisenting. C=
