Question: Some people have expressed concern that Square will back away from possible development on Xbox, GameCube or Game Boy Advance as a result of Sony\'s investment. Can you shed some light on that?

Square: We plan to continue pursuing Game Boy Advance development. As for the GameCube or Xbox, we have no plans to support either one at this point. Our business model is to support the best selling platform, so our focus is firmly on the PlayStation 2.

SONY invest money and tech support to Square, Square retuens the favour by sticking with them.

It\'s only FAIR !

Here\'s a neat idea.  Not a rumor or anything, just an idea.

Nintendo doesn\'t need Square to profit off GBA.  Square is the one who wants to develop for the system.  Nintendo should go, "OK! ... if you make a Gamecube game."

That would be an interesting proposal, anyway...  Again, just an idea.
