    In what is probably a first for Famitsu, only a single game is reviewed this issue: Yokai Watch 2. I don't think Yokai Watch ever made much of a splash overseas, but I remember how intensely popular it was here for a time, so I wouldn't be surprised if all the other publishers shied away from releasing anything else that same week, since nothing would have been able to compete. And speaking of things whose popularity ain't what it used to be, if you were wondering who those garishly dressed girls on the cover were, good luck figuring out how THIS got 17 million views:

  4. Thank you! I was very blessed to work for this company at 16 years of age! I got hired because I had been living in Redmond Washington in the 90s and was a huge square fan. I sent in a reply card to them and they called me one day asking if I would be interested in testing Secret of Mana?! Umm yes please. It was really cool there were about 12 of us similar ages and we went to Square every day for like a week during the summer to test it. They fed us pizza and we got to make some contributions. I named a couple of enemies (Snap Dragon and Tsunami (formally Mr. Water) Also got a free copy of the game when it was over and some merchandise. They kept calling me back to test and it culminated with Final Fantasy 6. I got to bring my brother and sister with me and play through it. They had me take a game play phone call during this time and then after the beta test they hired me. My brother discovered the relm sketch glitch but they didn't fix it for some reason. Working for Square as a game play counselor was really amazing. I got to play video games all day, test unreleased games, hang with the us developers, visit Nintendo etc. I even contributed to Chrono Trigger by naming Ayla. Frequently work with Ted Woosely and I want to confess that I borrowed his final fantasy v music cd and didn't return it.
