The former Square vice-president will be creating a game for the new Nintendo platform.
Hironobu Sakaguchi, the former vice president for Square has announced that his newly established Mistwalker studio will be working on a game for the Nintendo DS. Mistwalker's website appeared around March last year, although not much information about their upcoming project has been revealed. In the interview, Sakaguchi talks about the strategy RPG:
"I'm a real fan of strategy role-playing games, but I've never created one myself. So I'm planning to design one on my own, writing its scenario as well," Sakaguchi said. "I think that the elements in strategy RPGs, such as moving around the pieces or instructing [pieces to move to] areas, go perfectly with the touch-sensitive panel. I'm hoping to make it into a game that can be deeply enjoyed with just the stylus."
