Capcom Boss Sees 360 Potential

Capcom's boss, Inafune- san had this to say recently regarding the 360:

'I think I can only get away with saying this now, but I really thought that the using the Xbox 360 was only way to break into overseas markets, and I took that hypothesis all the way. In the end, I am very happy that I did so.'

i can totally understand that train of thought and respect it :)

I would agree with him.

Well they've made almost all their games this gen multiplatform on the 360 too so...I would assume they saw its potential a while ago.

Square doing the same thing, why do you think Star Ocean is exclusive to the 360.

It's a little obvious isn't it? "Hum... what to do to break on the American market? Tonkinoise soup or burger?" I mean, come on...I think the real interesting part of this interview was when he mentionned that it was hard to go against the general consensus and trust Microsoft instead of snubbing them. It says a lot about the Asian market and on how they perceive the American and European market."

I don't really find it surprising that a company would want to work with the X360 if they want to broaden their Western market/appeal...that's where the X360 thrives.
