Q&A: Taito's Fujita On Mobile Consolidation, iPod Hopes

Following up on a recent interview, Gamasutra catches up with Taito U.S. rep Keiji Fujita, who is senior producer for mobile products for the legendary Space Invaders creators in the territory.

Taito, which is currently owned by Final Fantasy creator Square Enix, still exists in its own right and created Exit for Xbox Live Arcade, as well as publishing the Cooking Mama series in Japan - though that series is published by Majesco in North America.

In this follow-up interview, Fujita discusses the consolidating cellphone game market and possibilities for Taito games on Apple's iPod hardware, as well as Square Enix and Taito's evolving relationship, including Square Enix publishing Taito DS games in the West.
