By now, you have more than likely heard about the high-definition remasters of Suikoden 1 and Suikoden 2. They are slated to release on multiple platforms, including the Nintendo Switch, tomorrow. This version of the 2 games is actually from the PlayStation Portable versions that released exclusively in Japan in 2006. With the release so close, it isn’t surprising that the developers have been talking a lot of about it lately.
For example, they recently spoke with Dengeki Online. In it, they are asked why it took so long to finish Suikoden I & II HD Remaster. According to producer Rui Naito, “I told Sakiyama and his team to ‘make something solid’ because it is the starting point for the IP’s revival. If we were to release a half-baked product, then [our attempt to revive the series] would be over”.
