There won't be combat, instead it will be nothing but a collection of mini-games, mostly the ones you hated from VII, IX, X, and X-2 but you'll be happy to know Lightning will have a dress mode that will allow you to dress her up in over 200* sexy dresses and outfits of your choice. Toriyama was excited to tell fans that he learned the importance of game balance from mobile gaming and despite being a console game, the game will make use of the Energy in the form of Candy Cane Moogles which must be used to play the games and recharges one CCM for every hour you don't play. If you want to get cracking at those games without waiting you can purchase CCM for the low low price of $4.99. Merry Christmas from Squenix and out new motto "Just give us all your money now you stupid fanboys!"

    *Only 10 dresses will be available at launch with 7 of them being Pre-Ordered DLC which is distributed between the different distributors and will never be made available again. The other 200 or so dresses will be pure DLC at the cost of $13.99 per dress and the dresses will be made available in "Surprise Boxes" which will randomly generate the new dress for the player to find. No refunds or bonuses if the Surprise Box generates a dress the player already owns.

    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    So was it the Saga game? Or was there something else?

    Wait, it can't be SaGa. I mean, everyone knows that would be infringing upon the Candy Crush Saga trademark.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    Oh man. PLEASE tell me King.com goes after Square Enix for pulling out an old and beloved niche RPG. And the tide of the entire internet erupts upon them. Please please please. It didn't really happen last time. And even then, they regretted sticking their nose where it didn't belong. But they basically won their argument. It'd be great PR for Square, and terrible PR for King. Which are BOTH good things! lol Ah, I still hold a grudge I guess

    Yeah, back when they actually already tried that against The Banner Saga some months ago I said "Woah, Square Enix should totally turn around and sue them just for laughs. They were making Saga titles long before King was even a company".
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Are they having a random New Year's Eve announcement, or are we just accepting they've lied in some regard. Either it's not for a console, or they're not revealing it this year, or it just doesn't really exist (at least not the way we want it)

    My guess is shoddy translating (which happens in a lot of these interviews). He was probably referring to the aforementioned Saga game for Vita.

    That or he was intentionally being disingenuous and thinking "Well, the Vita is also the Vita TV! It's technically a home console!"
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Actually I just went back and skimmed the interview again, and the announcements start in December and go through 2015 so you're right. We just misinterpreted it. And he said there will be announcements for both stationary and mobile consoles. Only that it will not be a remake or only browser/phone based. So yeah. SaGa fits those criteria and they'll still be announcing things into the new year. Rage and hate evaded

    I wonder if this new SaGa game is coming just to compete with Legend of Legacy for 3DS? Ah well, I doubt either of those games will come out outside of Japan anyway.

    Christ almighty, what did the gaming public do to deserve another SaGa game?
