Could we just get a Japanese training title already (for native English speakers)? Would easily sell a million copies in the U.S.A.! Why hasn’t anybody hopped on this yet?

This “DS style” thing SQUARE-ENIX is going for is simple. The ds was a new hardware to wich developers reacted like “WHAAAAA?” But now that everyone is up to speed and all the creative ideas and posibilities with a touch screen are out there, everybody wants to get on the money wagon nintendo got on with their ds. Its like when Sony told all those film companies that the UMD (The disc the psp uses) was the thing of the future and that everybody was going to be watching movies on their psp… the one that everybody was gona have… lol. Boy where they wrong. They stoped making those rather soon afther the psp launch. Dont get me wrong, its not like im a Nintendo fanatic, i have a psp… but Sony did sorta screw up with the movie thing. And while Nintendo was siting on a gold mine in 2006… people and gamers will soon begin to realize that there has to be more than “MA, LOOK, IM USING THE TOUCH SCREEN” (quote from Gametrailers.com) to the DS. Too bad SQUARE-ENIX didint started this sooner, while the idea of using a touch screen for all games was still sinking into most gamers minds as an “inovation”

Thanks for having me! Siliconera is a great venue for discussing these kinds of potentially influential, fringe videogame developments.
