Gegmaga recently had a chance to speak with a few significant developers including Keiji Inafune. Briefly, Infaune discussed casual games, and stated that he would never create one such as Brain Age. There are a ton of other interesting tidbits as well from members of Square Enix, Namco, and more.

Inafune (Capcom) :
-Regarding Resident Evil 5, he says that their experience with Mega Man 9 in parallel turned out to be useful when it came to tackle the online aspect and more particularly to come to grips with the online services/infrastructures.
– He would never, ever make a casual game such as Brain Training.
– He was right about which hardware would win the systems war, but he never thought the DS would be selling that much. ” Sorry (for doubting you), Mr. Nintendo”

Kawazu (Square-Enix) :

– There might be a SaGa related surprise for the 20th anniversary of the series next year.

Yoshizumi (Namco):

– The Tales of Wii battle system has innovations that will, apparently, greatly impress people. “Please look forward to it”

Terada (Super Robot War’s producer):

– They might “reposition their development” on the second half of 2009…
