Square Enix president discusses the need to “reform with urgency”
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
New Square Enix president Yosuke Matsuda recently sounded off on the need for the company to “reform with urgency”. Matsuda was speaking with Japanese site Infoseek when he shared the news.
Matsuda’s comments read (as translated by (Siliconera):
“The business model is at a turning-point. Up until now, the profit of home-console games have been decided by price times the number [sold]. Development and sales were divided, and the game developers only needed to concentrate on their work. That’s where the strengths of our company laid within.
“At the very beginning, the game business started out with ‘how can we get people to insert coins’. Afterwards, consoles became popular, and our company grew as game design and billing [methods] were divided. Presently, online games are prosperous, which again, has the theme of ‘how can we charge the people,’ as developers and sales have become inseparable. And the devices they can be played on has spread vastly. It’s truly a paradigm shift.
Almost all Watch_Dogs missions can be completed through stealth rather than killing
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Killing not your sort of thing? No worries. Watch_Dogs allows players to tackle almost all missions through stealth rather than weapons.
Senior director Dominic Guay, in an interview with Polygon, noted that roughly “95 percent of missions you can completely stealth through, or flee or chase without having to shoot”. Very few missions require players to kill others, Guay confirmed.
He said:
“About 95 percent of missions you can completely stealth through, or flee or chase without having to shoot. So it’s really player choice-driven. There are a very few, very limited amount of missions that will force you to kill people.”

Zelda: Wind Waker HD was developed in roughly six months
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
It didn’t take Nintendo very long at all to develop The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD. Series producer Eiji Aonuma revealed in a 4Gamer interview that it took just six months to create, give or take.
Aonuma also pointed out that he “thought it would be a waste to for this to simply be a test of the hardware,” which is one explanation as to how the Wii U release came to be. Wind Waker’s look, as well as other Zelda art styles, had been tested in HD.

This is perhaps the only third party game that has been as highly requested as several first party Nintendo titles, and now– courtesy of Jack– we can finally do it! Hopefully we didn’t screw up the one episode you really wanted to watch if you’re a Sonic Adventure 2: Battle fan.
