Current areas on the list for potential inclusion are Taito's expertise with the arcade games market as well as a more involved media strategy not unlike its recent foray into animation through Advent Children or past successes with popular anime series Fullmetal Alchemist. Does this mean that innovative games like Chrono Trigger are a thing of the past, and the only publications we can expect in the future will be part of the major pillars (FF, DQ and KH)? What is Wada doing to this company, anyway?
