Squaresoft SELLOUTS!?
Will Squaresoft sell out for the money??? Do you think that Squaresoft will sell out for the money and put the FF series on XBOX or do you think that they will keep it there. I read in a mag that even tho sony bout up a lot more stock that still doesn't mean that they have any control over who Squaresoft will develope games for. What do you think they will do

Squaresoft has already betraied sony by trying to develope some ff games for the GBA and you know any game that goes to the GBA will surely visit the GC.
MS has alot of money and they will definately take over Squaresoft immediately they have the slightest chance.With squaresoft out of sonys grasp.............bye bye ps2

The idea of them "selling out" is therefore unlikely. Gaseous Snake, do you really think they would sell out to microsoft? True, they do have a X-Box Dev kit, but then they also have a Dreamcast dev-kit with no games to show for it. And in all honesty, would you choose a console that will bomb, or the PS2. As for the GBA comment made by GaseousSnake, people seem confused that a GBA game is in development. Its a long way off even being given the go-ahead, and any GC games depend on how nice the GC looks to Square. Personally, i'd like to see FFs on the GBA at least, and I doubt Square's allegience to Sony will be harmed by any such developments.

I think Square will also make games for XBOX if the price is right. Square could really use the money I bet.

[COLOR=sky blue]Square could do many things with the FF series or all of their games.
They could go to the X-Box. The increased amount of profit that they will gain could help them develop more games. Sony really doesn't have a say in what Square does. Even if Square does make games for the X-Box, Sony won't stop talking to Square because a lot of the SCEA's income comes from Square's games. However, Square really doesn't need the money as much as people think they do. They recently released FFX International in Japan and FF6 in Europe. It's hard to say what Square will do. As long as they keep making games with Sony, I don't care.[/COLOR]

Anyway, the had-held market is completely different. SONY have no intetest in that at the moment. And why would a GBA game visit the NGC?? Considering a GBA is basically a hand-held SNES it's hard to see why any GBA games would move to the NGC. Quote:
Say if M$ did buy out Square - would this mean the end of the PS2? Hardly. There have been over 15 million PS2's sold worldwide - any business who ignores that user base is stupid. And anyway, Final Fantasy games are not the reason why people bought PS2's (or PSX's for that matter), especially here in Europe seeing as though FFVII was the first we ever got! - S |

Squaresoft putting out titles for the Nintendo systems isn't a betrayal, or them selling out. They're in the business of making money. Nintendo came first for Final Fantasy, anyway. So even without logic I wouldn't really mind.
If they completely migrate over to Nintendo again (I don't think that's even possible with Sony owning as much stock as they do) Then I'd be peeved, because I don't have a gamecube; but I'm pretty sure that Final Fantasy titles will still be produced for both consoles. Now, if Square started putting products out for the Xbox, then I'd consider them sellouts. As I stated in a thread in the General forum the Xbox is just a fad fiananced by rich boy Bill Gates. I've always thought of Square as being more about actual quality than leaning foward pop-culture appeal, which IMHO is what the box represents.
