Sakaguchi: The Last Story is 'my only project'

by JC Fletcher on Feb 1st 2010 6:14PM

It's likely that The Last Story, Mistwalker's new Wii RPG, is the project Hironobu Sakaguchi has been hinting at for a while. In a new blog post, the Final Fantasy creator said that the new RPG is "my only project because I am concentrating on this particular one right now." And then, because that didn't meet the appropriate level of creepiness, he described the game as "raised like a only daughter, but sometimes she was forcedly pushed into the abyss of ravine ... She's sturdy, beautiful and I'd like to nurture her gently."

Yikes. Anyway, the point is that Mistwalker has been at work on the game for a while, and Sakaguchi is working on it directly.

Since The Last Story is Sakaguchi's "only project" right now (except for the Lego creation above, of course), that means that either another team within Mistwalker is working on the iPhone game or it's been put aside until the The Last Story is all grown up.

Nice to see there are more developers who put effort on all their games, including the wii ones. This year is going to be great for the wii.

Its a great year for all gamers.

I'm a little concerned that this hasn't been confirmed for an international release, despite the fact that it will almost certainly get one. I mean, Nintendo would have to be stupid not to release a first-party-developed Sakaguchi game in the West... right?
