In case you haven't heard, the Vice President of Square-Enix and Co-Creator of the Final Fantasy series Hironobu Sakaguchi, has decided to leave Square-Enix to create his own game development studio. This has been the latest action from Sakaguchi ever since the revealing of FFXII... which then was his latest action ever since FF:TSW came out.
The Development Studio is named Mist Walker and unlike the big names like Konami, Square, and all that, they are independant and will not be publishing their games themselves or to a standard company. While this means they can get Square-Enix to publish their games, there is nothing to stop them from having another company to publish their games. A good example of this would be a game company called Treasure, where they worked on Ikaruga (published by Atari), Wario World (published by Nintendo), and Gradius 5 (published by Konami).
