The Other Worlds Shrine

Your place for discussion about RPGs, gaming, music, movies, anime, computers, sports, and any other stuff we care to talk about... 

  • And for those that haven't seen it: it's Square head as the MAIN GUY, and Enix head as the VP!  Now shut up and play your games :)

  • 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: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>On the business side of things, current Enix chairman Yasuhiro Fukushima will serve as the chairman of the company with current Square president Wada Youchi assuming the new president role. Current Enix president Keiji Honda will be the vice president with Square's Hisashi Suzuki serving as a special director to the firm. The firm's main office will find itself in Enix's current main office in Tokyo's Shibuya ward. As a consequence of the stock swap involved in the merger, Enix shareholders will own 55% of the new company.

Unless IGN changes this, there is little reason to believe otherwise.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>No, it's Enix chairman as head honcho, Square pres as pres, and Enix pres as vice pres. Also, Sony will own 8% of the new company. Guess where DQ8 is headed...</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>They have an interview which offers very little information and drew up their own conclusions. Besides, it's Gamepro's word against IGN's, there isn't much of a question on whose right here.</div>
