Will MS buy into a formidable JP developer soon?

The Mistwalker games could carry a lot more weight than people think right now.

Bluedragon is climbing the Famitsu "most wanted" charts. It's at no. 8 this week? (higher than DOA4 even) It might even sell thanks to the Toriyama hype...







But MS Japan might just screw it all up! :lol :lol :lol

But isn't the first one coming out late next year? By that time PS3 will be out and it probably won't make much of a difference.
I don't know if the date of Blue Dragon is fixed yet. I'm sure there'll be some great Japan-developed games out before that, but the Mistwalker games will be what push the casual masses over the edge, so to speak. I don't know what PS3 will have to offer before the end of 2006 but I'm not expecting a big name RPG in that timeframe.
 
Just no. Square is no longer Square; it's Square Enix, Sega is no longer Sega; it's Sega Sammy, and Nintendo... :lol

Japan has closed its doors for the Xbox, anyway. No point in trying to do the impossible.
