  • Sonic creator Yukon Naka joins Square Enix

  • 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.

Yes I realize his name’s Yuji, but my autocorrect replaced it with a name far more entertaining. I decided to keep it!

He confirmed this morning:
As a quick note to let you know, I joined SQUARE ENIX in January.
I’m joining game development as before, and strive to develop games at SQUARE ENIX.
I aim to develop an enjoyable game, please look forward to it.
...If I had a dollar for every introduction announcement from a video game executive that used the word “strive.”

I am not sure what will come out of this, if anything, but it’s an interesting deal between one of the industry’s original superstars and the company most of us were major fans of when we all arrived here some 20+ years ago.
