  • Rumors that Square wants to make games for the big N again?  This has me feeling nostalgic for 1997...

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>"SquareSoft shows plans to Nintendo

"We're not expecting to be accepted by Nintendo right away, but we're doing everything to get the relationship positive again. The most important thing about management is the ability of having several choices. It is hard to lose one of these. We have to try to convince Nintendo, by showing them our plans for GBA and GameCube that we will boost their hardware sales" said Mr. Suzuki, Square's president.

According to sources, Nintendo wants SquareSoft to commit to at least two GameCube games before they agree to allow SquareSoft to develop Game Boy Advance games. Looks like things may be more promising than Nintendo President Hiroshi Yamauchi lead us to believe...
