You’ve been working on the Castlevania franchise for quite some time now, do you have any plans for starting a new franchise on next-gen consoles?
Iga: Actually, I’m confused with all of this next-generation news. I don’t know what to do. I was really leaning toward PS3 in the beginning. But then at the Sony conference they announced the price and I was like, “Mmm, maybe it’s too expensive.”
When it comes to Wii, obviously the controller has a unique feature, but I just can’t come up with a good idea that utilizes it. I mean, clearly you can with a lot of time.
Microsoft has talked a lot about wanting to penetrate the Japanese market. They’ve got Square Enix putting out Final Fantasy XI. They have Mistwalker working on some projects. As a Japanese developer, do you think this will work to draw in the Japanese market?
Iga: I’m not really negative over Microsoft, but for some reason they tend to back off a little when it comes to something really foreign. But if Japanese developers would say they’re working on Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest or Metal Gear maybe, then I guess Japanese consumers would take it seriously and consider purchasing it. There has to be some killer titles to move the consumers into the 360 market. What I’m thinking is if Bill Gates uses his personal money and says, “I have a billion dollars. Why don’t you make a game for me?” Then we would love to work on it. (laughs)

Que cabrón xD
Lo que han de dejar de intentar es hacer copias del SOTN en 3D. Han de sentarse, hacer mas pequeño el castillo, pero hacer que cada habitación sea distinta a la anterior, que cada una sea unica y especial, que es lo que le fallan a los 3D, que todas las habitaciones parecen iguales y los pasillos se hacen eternos(10 segundos caminando por un pasillo sin nada pues como que no xD)
si, un buen juego la verdad, pero no se, parece que los castlevania en 3d dan grima de lo poco que consiguen con respecto a castlevania 2d (especial mencion al SOTN, un juego 2d que ha sido capaz de que ningun castlevania 3d lo superase).
