Square Enix president Yoichi Wada hinted in an interview today with Nikkei Business Online that the game company may be expanding into the realm of hardware. Specifically praising the success of the Nintendo DS and the iPod, Wada spoke of a collaboration with Taito.
Square Enix acquired Taito, a company experienced in the production of arcade hardware and creators of the TypeX line of PC hardware, last fall. In the interview, Wada stated "In our talks with Taito, ideas for an actual physical product have come up. In any case, we will be releasing some 'thing.' It's interesting in that it's not the sort of thing you expect from Square Enix."
It is uncertain just what this "some 'thing'" is... perhaps a game platform, accessory, or some new medium entirely.
Wada went on to add "You really have to dig deep within yourself to produce something new. You can't force it. We must change. Fortunately, we're financially prepared to handle change."
