May 3rd 2002
Gaming company Enix held their Sakura-Con panel on Sunday. The Panel was hosted by Andrew Stein of sales and Marketing and George Torii, their head translator.
Enix's big announcement was that they would be releasing Grandia Extreme in North America. They also showed the demo/trailer for RPG Star Ocean 3 for the first time outside of Japan, as well teazing fans with demos for a number of games that they have no intention of marketing or selling outside of Japan.
They spoke briefly about Dragon Warrior 7 and 4, since DW 7 didn't sell very well they have decided to pull Dragon Warrior 4 (which runs on teh same engine as DW 7).
