It’s been a long time since Hironobu Sakaguchi worked on Final Fantasy. Still, even today, he’s always asked about the series.

That’s understandable given how much of an impact he’s had on the IP, but at this point, he’s “really tired of talking about it.”

Sakaguchi said the following when asked if he’s sick of being asked questions about Final Fantasy:

“I’ve had six interviews today and I’ve never had so many questions about Final Fantasy. So yes, I’m really tired of talking about it.”

Hironobu Sakaguchi likes the thought of making a sequel to The Last Story. However, he isn’t sure if he’ll follow through on the idea.

During his BAFTA presentation last night, Sakaguchi said the following when asked about a sequel:

“It’s a good idea but I don’t really know whether I will be doing it.”

I’m sure Nintendo would have to approve of a sequel before anything happens. Who knows if they’re even happy with the sales of the game thus far…

Mighty Switch Force won’t be the only WayForward title for the eShop. CEO John Beck has said that the store “will be a major part of our strategy for handheld games going forward.”

Beck told Gamasutra:

“When you have certain content that is available exclusively on dedicated gaming devices, it really helps to set that content apart. The eShop will be a major part of our strategy for handheld games going forward.”

Will WayForward make a Mighty Switch Force sequel? Will they make a completely original game? Only time will tell!
