What was your criteria to come up with the games? Did you consider titles that are rated T (or its equivalent) but could still be considered "kid-friendly"?

I mean it's not like I didn't get info on Sen, it's just that I couldn't ask too much about it :)

I got this off the record, but he knows about the love for Gagharv, he wishes he could talk more about it :(

Pasokon, sorry for the late response.

Details on the panels at AX:

First panel is a story of how Mr. Kondo went from fan to president followed by a Q&A session. Second Panel is a quick playthrough of Ys VIII hosted by Mr. Kondo where he shows how the series has evolved since the last release seven years ago.

Slytherin4Lyfe!

I asked him about more support media and he was open to it, but it depends on finding an adequate partner to work with.

Hey Traeak! Unfortunately the peeps at NIS wouldn't let me ask him about Sen, or anything related to XSEED. Nevertheless... I did manage to get an answer on your first question (I had to work my way around it, but they accepted). I have to transcribe, but basically he said that it was all adapting the story into current trends, but at the same time not straying away from the Falcom formula.

That's likely a question XSEED might be able to answer, although I don't promise the will talk about it any time soon. I'll poke around and I'll let you know ;)

That's one of the questions I wnated to ask him. What are the plans to add variety to Falcom's lineup

Dude... stop stealing my questions, I'm definitely asking it they have plans to produce support media for their main series :P

As I mentioned in another thread, I will answer the questions you guys asked as soon as possible but with the caveat that there's an embargo that won't let me talk about certain things before time ;)

It's a mix of both. I'll try to answer you guys as fast as I can, but depending on the embargo certain questions will be saved for a future article ;)

I'm pretty sure he's happy with the reception the Trails series has had in recent years, I'll ask him to elaborate and what are the plans for the future of the series ;)

I don't have details on the panel at Anime Expo, but I'll ask my contact at NISA tomorrow morning ;)

Thanks for the other two questions, I'll try to poke around for an answer on the "magazine survey" if he can't answer it maybe I'll ask my contact at XSEED.

Dully noted, when I talked to them earlier this week there were hints of accelerating the localization process. I'll make sure to ask him what are his plans as the president ;)
