بإختصار يقولك شراء الشركة لإيدوس وألعابها قدرنا نحفظ ماء الوجه , والأداء الياباني للشكرة كان مخز.Final Fantasy XIII-2 got plenty of attention at E3, but one Square Enix exec wanted to see more from the company's Japanese side.
Square Enix had on the whole a pretty good showing at E3, with Tomb Raider featured as one of the headline titles at Microsoft's press conference and games like Deus Ex and Hitman Absolution in the headlines.
Of course, those are all from the Eidos side of the company. The question is, where were all the Japanese Square Enix games?
There were some Japanese produced titles, most notably Final Fantasy XIII-2. But one Square Enix higher up was disappointed by this side of the company's showing.
Koji Taguchi, a senior executive officer at Square Enix Holdings, posted the following at Twitter on the final day of the show: "Because we merged with Eidos and had games like Tomb Raider, Deus and Hitman, as a company we were able to keep face. But the decline in Japanese titles was almost humiliating. This has been a week where I worried daily about how we can fix this."
Taguchi isn't the only Square Enix higher-up who has been open in his opinion about the company's Japanese development. Last month when Square Enix announced huge losses, CEO Yoichi Wada said that he expects an internal development revamp to take two years.
