ThisGenGaming says "Phil Spencer did a huge impromptu Q&A on Twitter were he discussed JRPG's on Xbox One, a new Crimson Skies game, Halo Wars 2, backwards compatibility news for next week and issues the team are having with some publishers, and finally how both old and new games are going to sell people on the Scorpio."
Embracer CEO demonstrates a masterclass in mental gymnastics in latest interview.
"I'm sure I deserve a lot of criticism, but I don't think my team or companies deserve all the criticism. I could take a lot of that blame myself. But ultimately I need to believe in the mission," he said.

Turned based Phantasy Star and Shinning Force remain at the top of my list of Sega IPs that need to return. At the very least I'd take a Shining Force collection that has 1,2,3, CD and the Game Gear entries.
I don't trust Sega to do a proper comeback. The games will be just remastered and/or monetized to death.
I wonder if Phil will be bringing his chequebook when he goes to Japan?
"and finally how both old and new games are going to sell people on the Scorpio." OK.
At this point as far as phil is concerned, words are meaningless. only Results will count.
It'll be a fruitless venture. No matter how much Microsoft spends efforts on securing JRPGs for Xbox One, the poor sales of those titles on the console will deter many Japanese publishers from seriously backing it. The most XO will get are multiplats with PS4 JRPGs.
