Square-Enix's Wada: 360 And PS3 'Over-Engineered'
>> From gamasutra.com:
[QUOTE]
A new interview with Square Enix CEO Yoichi Wada has seen the influential executive emphasis the importance of the handheld market, particularly the Nintendo DS and describe the Xbox 360 and PS3 as "mismatched" to emerging new demographics.

Speaking in a new article by the Financial Times, Wada suggested that the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 were poorly suited to the current market and that handheld consoles would continue to dominate sales this year, as the demographics of consumers fundamentally alters following the success of the Nintendo DS and Wii.

Wada also accused the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 of being over-engineered, saying; ""There are too many specs - and you also need a high-definition TV, a broadband connection and a deep knowledge of gaming - these consoles are mismatched to today's environment. In a year or two years they will fare better."
