With the press getting all riled up over Square Enix's financial numbers, rumors are hitting the web about about cancellations, shake up threats, and all manner of corporate drama.
Whether or not you think the sky is falling in on Square, there is a piece of news to be heard. According to Kotaku, the RPG maker has sent off a mobile game to its death. What's interesting is that the game in question is one connected to a home console game. And really, there's only one game that fits that profile, but until we see them lowering Agito's casket into the earth, we have to hold off on an official decision.

Final Fantasy Type-0 HD was released in North America today, marking the start of a week's worth of releases in various regions across the world. Yesterday, review embargoes were lifted and multiple publications were allowed to post their thoughts on the long-awaited western release of Final Fantasy Type-0. I've gathered a few key impressions and linked to the full text...

With Type-0 HD only days away, Square Enix is still cranking out trailers in an effort to lure in any hesitant, last-minute gamers (I'm looking at you, xin -_- ) before next week's worldwide release. Their newest trailer elaborates on the roots that Type-0 HD shares with the lore and mythology of the Final Fantasy series as a whole. Personally,...

With Type-0 HD a little over a week away from release worldwide, Square Enix is spotlighting the game's english voice acting crew. It's a nice change from the traditionally Japanese-heavy voice acting that has permeated most of the recent trailer releases. This trailer features Machina and Rem quite prominently but doesn't shy away from the voices of the game's other...
Not a big loss since its just a cellphone game and they don't get released outside of Japan anyway :p
I agree that it's no big loss if this is true. Besides, cell phone games, even if they are released, are the shortest lived and least remembered games ever created. And part of liking a good game is the nostalgia later.
I do agree, I wasn't looking forward to this game knowing I would never play it because of the 'console' it's on...but if they dare cancel FFXIII or Versus XIII......I will hunt down some people and I won't be the only one! lol ;)
I kinda doubt that they are going to cancel a "real" game from one of their most popular series :p
i doubt they would cancell it maybe they just will working on it for their reasons...but not a big loss and maybe for the better if it was cancelled.
I wouldn't mind if they released the cell games in the West though. Oh well, I guess playing games on my PSP and GBA on the bus will have to do! Plus I'll probably be playing spore on my iPod touch before too long.
ya i don't this would have a big impact on us North Americans and Europeans since we don't play cell phones games as much as Japan.
