And later on in the interview he clarified even further:
Okay, so as a businessman, Wada is excited for the short-term growth that these types of innovations will bring but thinks that, in all reality, they’re nothing more than a flash in the pan. So just what is this guy excited for?
Now while that sounds like just about the most boring thing ever, Wada does manage to make things slightly more interesting by the time the interview ends.
It’s no secret that Square-Enix seems to have a love affair with the iPhone platform, so is this interview indicative of Wada’s hopes to see a similar setup on the home consoles? Are they setting themselves up as the consoles’ answer to Steam? Or is this something different altogether?
The closest image I can think of is Valve’s Steam service. But I do not want to end up fighting with Valve or the game console manufacturers and as a diplomat and ambassador I will not be saying anything that will offend them.
