Lifestreaming: Square Enix wants simultaneous worldwide releases |
Ó

Always look to Aeris if you want world peace. Amidst all the complaints from RPG fans in US and Europe of how Japan always gets things first (settle down, folks; Crisis Core is coming in just a few more days!), Square Enix is now making a move to have worldwide simultaneous releases for their games.
Yoichi Wada expressed this goal of theirs to Japan's Nihon Keizan Shimbun, saying that Square Enix will be "making simultaneous releases the norm" from this point on. This bodes well, especially after Wada's consideration of expanding their development studios to Western regions as well as reassessing their partnership with Microsoft.
Unfortunately, it remains unsaid as to what specific games in their pipeline will be having a worldwide simultaneous release. Maybe Final Fantasy 13 for the PS3 or Dragon Quest 9 for the DS? Square Enix seems to be putting those two in their priority lists - even though specific release dates haven't even been revealed yet.
Who knows? While chances of seeing them roll out within the year are slim, we can still hope for a simultaneous release for when these games come out in the future.

I really hope that all goes through.
I really wish they make great games like Final Fantasy XIII or Dragon Quest IX on xbox360... that way we dont have to buy two console at a time......
is it Shinbun? or Shimubun? because there is no "M" in japan only "N"
Great as long as they don't shy away from making games available that they thought only would be popular in Japan and not make them for a world wide release then later realise that other countries want them as well so they decide not to release them because of this announcement. I bet they won't do that though.
If U Want To Play A Game Just Get The System Its Made For I Got A PS3 For MGS4 And FF13 I Got A 360 For Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon Went Out And Got The Wii DS And PSP For The Games They Made Well Anyways This Is Great News I Hope Square Goes Through With This It Isnt Hard To Accomplish Having One Studio In Japan Dubbing And Another In America Dubbing In English At The Same Time.
Both are used for the same character. It's all a matter of the person writing. Konbanwa and Kombanwa are the same word.
it's cool and not cool. When it popped in japan 1st, I was sad till they say: the US version will have tons of more stuff and less bugs. Or like the US version of Dirge of cerberus, a completly new system of aiming (stuff like that), lol.
Still, having it before destroy it all. I just hope they'll make this for FF13 and vs13. This would mean they are traducting at the same time and not waiting stupidly before the game is finished and released in japan before traducting, lol.
ps: I WANT a ps3 version of dragon quest!
Why does Crisis Core still not even have a release date in Europe?
