We’d absolutely love to do more video stuff, but it simply isn’t cost-effective to produce and host our own shows at present. All going to plan, that’ll be something we pick up on again in the coming months. As regards Japanese gaming – you *have* noticed that we’ve dedicated an entire site to the subject, right? :p

I agree that “VideoGamesDaily” is on the generic side, but “Kikizo” was far too opaque. Anyhoo, we’ve retained the name for the company and network as a whole.

And just want to add, to not sound all negative, that the interviews with japanese developers are still worth visiting. Could do with less western games being featured, as these are already extensively covered on plenty of other sites.

I liked the old name better, the new name is very generic and easy to forget. Also one of the reasons I first visited Kikizo a few years ago were the then still rare high quality gameplay videos. A section of the site that has been neglected and then forgotten.

Man, I missed this site! But, seeing as I didn’t visit much before, I don’t really understand why =P

I’ll make sure I visit daily from now on!

Anyway, bring on the interviews!
