There's no question of Square-Enix's newfound love affair with Nintendo, and in an interview on Cubed3, Senior Vice President Hiromichi Tanaka discusses a wide array of topics, including but not limited to the following:
Full details on the interview can be found here.

Instead of FF XI, I would rather have Squenix put an online mulitplayer mode for FF CC for the Wii.
I bet that FF AP will not be made for the Wii, but it will for the DS.

There's a 50/50 chance that Chrono Trigger will show up on Virtual Console.
50/50? What are they going to do, flip a coin? Heads, it goes on the VC, tails, it goes on the GBA?

Hiromichi Tanaka stated that Square Enix has a habit of starting engines from scratch, proving to be inefficient and they are actively looking to amend this, especially as development costs rise as the next generation starts to hit full stride;
This is probably why they recently announced that they are licensing the Unreal 3 engine. That engine gets around!

Probably won't happen. It'll probably be something stupid like a Super Smash Brothers clone with FF characters from all 12 canon games, as well as Mystic Quest, Tactics(including Advance and the new DS one), and Crystal Chronicles.

I dunno about this one. Even Nintendo games don't actually require friend codes. Also, would Nintendo actually refuse to licence a game if they went about their own online scheme? Case in point PSO.

I don't even care about FFXI but if Nintendo's online policy is going to prevent certain games from being made then Nintendo should fix it. We've had to deal with developers avoiding Nintendo consoles because of questionable Nintendo policies since the N64 and I think it's completely unacceptable now. The era of Nintendo doing things weird for no reason needs to end.

The freaking install folder on a standard up to date windows installation is like 6 gigs. Where's all that info going to go when most of it is updates that won't be on the disc?
