Square Enix prepares "steady stream" of titles for XBLA - Joystiq [Xbox]

Hot on the heels of the announcement of Crystal Defenders for Xbox Live Arcade, 1UP reveals that Square Enix has still more planned for the download service. The next announced title will be Yosumin Live, a port of a Japanese puzzle game originally designed for the DS, which was first rumored -- and more or less confirmed -- early this month. The game requires players to connect blocks of the same color diagonally, thus eliminating all the blocks in between. The further apart the two original block, the bigger the score. If it sounds confusing, you can check out a video of the original after the break.

It looks like Square Enix isn't stopping there, as 1UP reports that the press release announces that the company plans to release "a steady stream of its popular titles -- as well as original content" on XBLA in the future. Exactly what these titles will be remains to be seen. It's possible Square Enix will draw from its catalog of mobile games or, dare we dream, even its catalog of RPGs.

Front Mission and Live A Live plz

Default Final Fantasy IV: The After, Coming to XBLA?


Mystery URL At Japanese Microsoft Site Suggests 360 Final Fantasy IV....
( http://www.xbox.com/ja-JP/games/f/finalfantasy4/ )

Quote:
Notice that Microsoft Japan's server appends a "details.page/" to the URL. Now try a different one; replace "finalfantasy4/" with "finalfantasy5/", gibberish, or anything else. No "details" are appended.

What does this mean? A "finalfantasy4" is registered on Microsoft Japan's Xbox 360 web page for some reason -- and we'd be willing to guess it might represent a forthcoming Xbox Live Arcade port of Square Enix's recent cell phone RPG Final Fantasy IV: The After. Just last week, Microsoft stated the following in its press release concerning Square Enix's first two XBLA releases, Yosumin and Crystal Defenders: "Beginning with these two games, Square Enix plans to release a steady stream of its popular titles -- as well as original content -- on Xbox LIVE Arcade". Both Yosumin and Crystal Defenders are ports from mobile platforms, so it's not such a stretch to imagine The After might be next.
