For the love of God ...
Square "eyes bigger than its belly" Enix has revealed in the latest Famitsu that it currently has five unannounced games in development. Considering it has about ten billion announced games in development, one wonders if the Japanese company will ever think it's got enough on its plate.
We don't know what the games are because -- duh -- they're unannounced, but you can probably rest assured that there's some Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest in there. In any case, that's five more games we can add to a growing list that includes Versus, Agito, NIER, Final Fantasy Gaiden, Final Fantasy XIV and plenty more besides.
Where does Square Enix find the manpower for all this stuff?

Also, how much of this is "SE" and how much is it "SE - Europe (AKA Eidos)"?
"[...] I like to see fresh new games. Maybe something with an oldschool turn based battle system would be awesome."
What?! You like fresh new oldschool games? What does that even mean?!
"Sigh...Let me guess 5 JRPGs?"
No idea why you would assume that. They've been doing a helluva lot more then just JRPG's lately.
Chrono.
Mention.
Fail Fantasy.
Could you link that interview please? seems highly unlikely. I've heard they cut them away to get a better pace in the game. Towns were nothing but breaks anyway, stopping the 'action' and talking to every single soul.
I demand more effeminate jesus.
Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Agito, NIER, Final Fantasy Gaiden, Final Fantasy XIV, Dragon Quest X (announced when IX was still in development, iirc they said it was a Wii game), all of the stuff Square Enix Europe is working on (Tomb Raider reboot, Thief 4, etc)...they're a frigging videogame factory.
Here's hoping that they'll make some wonderful stuff like TWEWY 2, or a new Final Fantasy Tactics...
I swear, I can't remember the last JRPG that I finished because usually I'd get so bored halfway through that I'd just quit on it.
If Squeenix would learn the value of evolution and put out more quality games, I'd give them a second chance.
Square Enix has early character designs for possibly a Final Fantasy fighting game that was going to possibly be something like Dissidia, only for the PS3 exclusively instead of the psp. If its true then it will be like a reversal of SEGA's strategy with Valkyria Chronicles, which is the way it should be.
The psp should be utilized for popularizing new ips, it would allow for new innovative ideas to be implemented with little risk.
As for my source in case anyone is curious, heres a link

It would be sickeningly awesome however if it did become a reality IMO.
