If you think about what has changed in the market from last year, the new factor is the possibility that Japanese rates may start to rise, so there's more room for the yen to appreciate.

I believe that there are many interesting projects that are potentially possible for me other than game music, and therefore in my mind there are several things that are being contemplated.

However in countries outside of Japan I think game music is still a potential growth market that has not yet developed to the extent that we are seeing in Japan.

I guess many game music fans prefer original soundtrack albums.

I don't know anyone who would be exclusively working on game music, per se.

Last year in Germany at a town hall in Leipzig there was a game music concert played by the orchestra and some of the Final Fantasy scores were played. This year there is another concert scheduled in the same location, for game music.
