Tanaka among other Final Fantasy devs/people playing with the new Final Fantasy Rhythm game for 3DS. He's really beating the shit out of that system.
He is terrible, I don't think he's ever played any video games, let alone FFXI
It's almost like he's angry at the 3ds...
Take your stylus. Strike it down with all of your hatred and your journey towards being a terribad game director will be complete!
Is it bad I think that's the best final fantasy game in the past 5 years?
nah xiii-2 is better but still can't wait for that game to be announced to NA
If only I knew how to work with videos/change captions...
Tanaka taps the 3DS with his stylus three times.
Tanaka: Hello? Kazoo?
Interviewer: Who is Kazoo?
Tanaka: The little man who lives inside pocket consoles. He tells me how to balance FFXI...

Random SE Employee: I started here at Squaresoft in a workstudy when I was 14... Mr. Tanaka told me to give him a cream pie. It turned out he wasn't looking for dessert. Eventually, I earned a full time job, but we all have to do awful things to appease Mr. Tanaka. To work here, one must sacrifice all sense of self, and give into the pulsating thrust of Tanaka's will.
Random SE Employee: Sometimes Tanaka drugs us before he takes executive action, then sews our lips shut. The pain is immense, especially when he punishes us with his lifesize Ridill replica. The whole time, I'm just like... "I have no mouth and I must scream."
Random SE Employee: My wife, kids... my own mother, man... were all killed... Was Tanaka responsible? ... ... ... There's no doubt in my mind.
Tanaka smiled in that video.
He smiled!
8 sucked 10 was awesome
10 was really good too. I still haven't played all the way through 9.
9 was boss. I can not begin to describe my love for 9. I think I have about 10 60~hr save files for 9.
Edit: Never tried for Ecali2 tho... prolly the only thing I didn't do. I just always loved the story too much to rush it.
Edit2: Fuck you all, now I have to go play it again and I'm busy enough as it is.
4 sucked 9 was for furries and 12 played itself
I'll get lynched for this, but I actually enjoyed X-2 more than X. And no, not for the story (not that either of them was anything to write home about)
Offtopic, but:
I is nearly unplayable, imop.
II/III after wasting a few hours grinding through I with neither an enjoyable plot nor an enjoyable battle system, I didn't even check out its NES compatriots.
IV wasn't engaging or fun, so I can't really rate it because I barely played it.
V was awesome. Fuck plots, we have a job system!
VI was pretty great for SNES, but I feel the translation was likely terrible and the game would have been even better if it had a good translation (Kafka coming off as evil instead of funny, etc.)
VII was okay, but I could never bring myself to care about Aeris or (honestly) the plot in general. It was still enjoyable enough though. I liked Red XIII's story best.
VIII had an annoying draw system and Squall was an emo kid. Other than that, I liked it.
IX was fine until half way through the game when the plot totally changed because they realized they would only make it to disk 2 saving the princess.
X was a soap opera and it was way too easy to become ridiculously powerful. I hated this game more than any other FF.
XI was trash. Never play it.
XII wasn't very engaging for me, but perhaps I've gotten too old for the "Surprise, you're saving the world!" plot twist.
XIII/X-II/whatever - Did not play
Random other games:
Suikoden III - Play I and II first if you want, but it works fine by itself too. Forget that they made IV, V, and Tactics and don't taint your impression of III.
Bahamut's Lagoon - Get it emulated, which is the only way you can play it because it was never translated. Dejap translation group, I think.
Kingdom Hearts - It was so much cooler than I thought it would be when reading about it. II is super-easy-mode, but I is balanced pretty well. I sense the spirit of Tanaka.
Star Ocean 1/2 - Both good and pretty fun to play. 3 had better graphics (it was on PS2), but was a worse game in my opinion.
Grandia II - NA translation is pretty funny. Gameplay/etc... not so much maybe. Still funny.
Disgaea - Great game. I never played any related sequels though.
Crystal Chronicles was here, nothing else compares to 4 friends on a couch using GBAs to look for treasure, enemy scans and teaming up to take down bosses.
Most people who disagree with this never got to experience the full effect of what the game had to offer, which is a shame. Even if the entire set-up was ridiculously expensive.
X-2 had one of the best ATB systems out of any FF title imo.
Not sure which Star Ocean is The Last Hope, but I enjoyed that (only one I've played). Even if the lead role has possibly the stupidest name of any hero. Edge Maverick. Edge Maverick? Are you fucking serious?
