yeah i dont think square merged with enix until 02 or 03


Yeah, the merger didn't occur until the PS2 era I believe. I vaugely remember seeing "Squaresoft" up until then. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=15428 2009-01-27T12:53:02 -05.00 8bitking 20 http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=15428 2009-01-27T12:47:16 -05.00 8bitking 20 http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=15428 2009-01-27T12:25:39 -05.00 8bitking 20
They talk about it right at the start, obviously it's not a Square site, but I'd take their word for it. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=15428 2009-01-26T18:22:02 -05.00 8bitking 20

So I heard through the grapevine that the original Final Fantasy was teh last ditch effort from SquareEnix to make a successful game...Hence the name Final Fantasy...does this rumor have any merit?? Of course I could go to  wikipedia, but I was hoping for some really in depth deep nerdy shit here and get the real story from people who know what they are talking about...anybody know??? THX

That's what I heard as well, although Square and Enix weren't merged at that point. What I heard is that it was Square's last effort to make a successful game.
