Alternately, like, take what you said and replace "XIII" with any other game ever. I have a hard time taking people who like The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past because clearly they were just pretending to play the game instead of really looking at what they're allowed to do in the game! Clearly!

Slightly more on topic, is there anyone else who'd like to see some lower-development-time, non-HD games (maybe for handhelds? Although even handhelds are HD resource-heavy games these days) come from SE? There's a /fairly/ high chance that this is nostalgia filter at play, and I've actually been really happy with what they've been doing, visually and otherwise, with the HD blockbuster approach. I'm just sort of curious what sort of game would come out of a more minimalistic approach to game resources (and I just got done playing Radiant Historia, which in addition to being fantastic, hit a lot of nostalgia-filter buttons, I think).

ETA: Wow, Lucifer, I think that's the classiest thing I've ever read on these forums. I'm impressed. Go give yourself a lollipop or something.
I agree that the games SE has been releasing on handhelds have been really good and honestly I'd like to see more of that happening. I especially liked the DS FF III and IV remakes. I don't think VITA development can be considered that fast any more though, but there is the 3ds that's still reasonably low-def.
