Square Enix President Yoichi Wada Expresses His Thoughts on the PLAYSTATION 3

Yoichi Wada, the big boss of Japanese gaming company, Square Enix, likes to express his opinions. What does he feel about the PLAYSTATION 3? Wada feels that Sony isn't expressing the use of the console properly, as in not telling the consumer what kind of games are on the market.

He feels that the recent price cuts are going to improve sales big time, but he beleives the price is too cheap for what you get. He claims his phone is more expensive than the PLAYSTATION 3, but hey, he's rich. We aren't surprised. You can read that full interview with him here.

Square Enix Thinks Sony Needs to Define It's Console

Yoichi Wada, the CEO of Square Enix, the big cheese, spoke with CNET Japan about this generation of consoles. He expresses his feelings on the PLAYSTATION 3, Xbox 360, and Wii.

He states that the PLAYSTATION 3 is a media hub and gaming console but hasn't defined itself yet. He stated that only the Xbox 360 has appropriately touted itself as a gaming machine. About Nintendo's Wii, he says "people aren't buying the Wii as a game machine, but as a toy."

He also goes on to say that Square Enix isn't just a Final Fantasy & Dragon Quest company. They keep making new installments of the series because "... people keep asking for new installments." They have many new IPs coming next year. Hopefully, though he has a bit of harsh feelings for the PLAYSTATION 3, they will arrive on the console as well.
