- Microsoft XNA Game Creator Contest Congratulations 2008 Award of Excellence.

Mr. Sagawa (hereinafter, Sagawa) Thank you.

- The application period is now shorter Temashita hear, please tell us If you have any difficulties in the development of short, were there any?

All I should say that all of Sagawa (w graphic resources in terms of all members in particular has struggled. The real work and when I got hit in the timing of Comiket has been determined that about two weeks time in the limit that can be done to really explore how it can build two a week? it is difficult to assess.

- It's a pretty tough schedule was. But that award was made in what was exceptional was also limited in that joy?

Sagawa Yeah, but I was happy with the course, was also surprised at the same time.

- There is not that what made correctly identify?

Sagawa eventually went well. However, in the work until the last line of Suresure whether applicants can still reach parts of it went well and was aggressive in helping shape some of the design work and I know I was over (w

- The venue was announced that the XNA software was made in many exhibitions, please tell me what you actually played the exhibited works.

I was still game software award was announced Sagawa site is a comprehensive well-organized it was. Look in the gut, and I thought What is a Ah this award. After the Games, is the highest award that was directed into the Chau and player characters to cry or they would not give pause time in the fine arts凄Ku, What is there greater impact, so even the little things like that afford to play with such little something I thought What is入Retakatta Na.

- Well, what it is that the future challenges? This is what I can see in the winter Komi per w

Sagawa is whether there is a problem with it is a difficult place to be (w
And also to say, I also get involved with the studio called the origin of dwarf, small-scale entertaining as possible with small resources necessarily match those of a fine production is also important because such a concept as a whole circle, Let's directions and look for a different approach for a little more is expected.
One form of that approach as the way, could possibly be fit to be the first Komi during winter? Or even the state of

- That sounds fun, I'd like to show Zehi.

Sagawa Yeah. Soon, you will be working with you (w

- It and cooperate if you can help and give as much as w

Sagawa Sono will come when, thank you. Something concrete? That is, Maa, and I enjoy it.

- Waiting for you to enjoy. さて、今回のコンテスト受賞作品を見ても専門学生の製作したものが数多く受賞してますが、XNAの国内での活動はまだ教育機関との提携くらいしか動きがないと思いますが、今後のthat want to expand or MS?

First Sagawa, NXE, and it is starting this week to formally update Komyunitigemusu overseas, in places as a means to expand national service in the spring of next year and that's going to break one. As development is a big part of itself that things make sense, so wearing the official launch in first be reached on what happens from there? And see what I can say is I think to some extent fluid. However, the country is concentrated in XNA because I had a really educational for the appeal itself, I hope that going to appeal to developers a little more common. In particular, web and so they have an overwhelming margin than in official foreign information, and much will be different and be just exactly the translation and technical translation notes at the very least I think the sample code. In fact, XNA1.0 era when煮詰Matta technically, there is something that picks up information from the address of the International Forum (w

- Per the site it started I was painfully aware. Most of the articles on the siteけXNA contraception and I did not mean the reproduction of the w

Sagawa Yeah. You might challenge their side's MS. Since there is only so far in Japanese sources. However, the problem is MS has also recognized the progress in the future I want to watch and I think that is so.

- Well, here I thought the next question, Windows can be made for XNA games, but low penetration in Japan, but I think there is cause to? Also, in Japan you can not still think about the Creators? It was a, I w I to be answered

Sagawa answer about Windows, so I think there is something a little (w
Windows that for the low penetration in the
For optimization, as long as possible, managed code work with a lasting image of XNA XNA's API does not make it difficult to tie with only minor processing. For those who have so far not made or built environment崩Senai Windows and eventually given to move around in the familiar factors that DirectX and better each mixture was used, it The factors that are personal and are spread far enough to see.

- Well, that certainly undermine what until now was familiar hard I look out of your hands. However, that can make games for home consoles is attractive as a creator is not what?

Sagawa me as an individual is in an attractive, why have not I got it cancels the attractive wall there's so much freedom in seeking development at the same time? And then they think. Later, Xbox360 factors also may be part of that I do not have to give a twist to the performance of the actual differences in the behavior of managed code.

- Well, but there are areas that call for freedom and development, XNA is what you made of the many restrictions?

Sagawa Yeah. Point will still have some points. API is first, Xbox360 anticipating the behavior of the case,. NET Framework is available in the API. NET Compact Framework out Restraints that can be used in materials. With that said, unfortunately is a big problem in this part is not so実Ha無Ku, Xbox360 has no concept of file system, a very hard time dealing with the fact that the file format of its own parts It seems like that is pretty big limitation. But to say so and also eliminate the restrictions that will help end security, things will be inclined to get in bad trouble and what action right without also crafted native code because it is no doubt I can understand part of it is there.

- It is, there is a limit as I think console gaming is inevitable. However, Xbox360 Creators should be to transfer into the game, I feel that will receive benefits for less pay. The talk will be back, about to have a Japanese site and I really hope the Creators.

Sagawa Sono're a tough side. Indeed, that year license 1 million yen in the previous case in terms of personal development (basic individual and family development kit for WonderSwan) is higher than even overwhelming, but I ran out, starting from the normal body development of a formal contract and given that there is room to say so far the price has changed, I'll make it to the conclusion that it is seen from the perspective and cheap way. Then, for of Japanese, the U.S. should be nothing and anything, including the XNA framework for the Japanese department also sounds like the Shinano happen. MSKK in which the pupil is not connected, XNA from Japan, they have been led by the U.S. as pivotal in the development of the XNA development rules that will tamper with because I have a cold, a multilingual those of the main unit in the U.S. It is not only stir up the idea in mind. OS and software in the world recently, including mean it like that also contains elements that come Multilingual Japanese page comes out of the Creators of the United States saw one page, so that We really want it.

- Japan is also so I got to突Ttsukanai XNA representatives w

Sagawa is there if I want to say this on your blog while using what is actually operated by Creators (w

- Reviews from people who're using is large. But even what I'm not MS Education issued a request to me to the Japanese?

Sagawa course is that such voices from students, but I mentioned, I think the thing that we can read the English scene. Japanese documents in the actual development site is no longer present, such cases only because English is a familiar story document.

- What do you do that I'd be able to read English as a developer w

Sagawa That's right. That conversation is impossible in English, too, some technical documentation, we will take a look around and, in fact, XNA is little to look over the materials in the development of English. And so now the web can be used as a translation in time, I know I'll make it somehow and what percent is well under the circumstances if no Japanese document and goes through while doing it. Ultimately the actual color by moving their hands and some people do not know the situation and not try.

- Try to work out and it certainly is a lot. However, it is I would probably have scared off the only part of English What is it w

Sagawa, rather it is, but that could be involved as part of the overall theme and development.

- It is. Now, the next question to change the subject. 11/19, but will also start a game from overseas communities, it stands as a sensational do you think 2009 was started in Japan?

Sagawa Frankly, the only game show created by Japanese creators, and perhaps the first to get tough then? And are you happy. Students outside the XNA still lack the absolute number of people who are out of your hands, and perhaps get out of that? It is just that.

- Lack of consent is too absolute. Because I think you can post questions to the game with an active community of students, who initially did not post it just might dwarf's studio w

Sagawa us to truly say that we think is not only people who post is good 5,6 (groups) out of that situation might actually be starting to become. However, as the studio dwarf, or that the software ready to get services started at the time how much playing time to download the form? I have been active in stance, and I guess that will boost the field while Komyunitigemusu turn up in an honest way? And are you happy.

- I think it's because we expect one of the community spirit of the game's participants will heap up w

Sagawa Ganbarimasu (w

- From just a few times but'm getting XNA to say that there is a certain threshold height, Enterbrain's day from December 12th will be released XNA project output can Akushongemutsukuru. There is a distribution Dojin games are made using a previously Tsukurushirizu from around then that XNA will be participating in or thinking?

Sagawa is among the first gas production in the Maker is going to be centered around high school students are. Dojin says RPG games are making Maker is one I have, the time would be a Akushongemutsukuru, RPG if there is a demand for office and worked in the Maker? And not see any part of that was from Dojin style so that it makes freely flowing their actual national classification or XNA? You're part of it's inevitable I'm not forecasting.

- Sure, it Dojin RPG, it is mainstream and I'm using the Gemutsukuru fighting. (Akushongemutsukuru is) on sale Mon 12 so, (the game was made), or after the summer of next year will be distributed as Comiket?

Reproducir videos Sagawa I hope it is advent of winter in the Komi reversed. Date back two years ago, XNA1.0 is absurd that a 12 to slip into winter Komi been released in January, so I did (w

- Do you mean that there is a precedent for more than w

Simple things can be hell if I think Hayo Sagawa.

- Now let us hope that somewhere out w

Well, Sagawa (w

- Can come so incidentally, will be used as a studio dwarf Akushongemutsukuru available?

Sagawa can state that this is not clear.

- Does the last question. 'm Getting is the story of Comiket, XNA Game reaction around the distribution made on what do with?

Participate in the event when the Xbox360 is not limited to Comiket Sagawa not take pictures of the actual operation, Xbox360 still eye-catching thing in that it is running on the actual lot. However, Windows is doing that there is a high threshold of required components, including the version, but fun work environment was also true that was partly because the situation continues to be a frustrating one to play with pretty hard to come . However, from next year, so even alluded Komyunitigemusu state Komi frustrating like that last winter was probably one of the following possible? And are you happy.

- Windows version of the distribution so that the XNA GS 3.0 is better now, next year, so I better environment.

Sagawa Yeah. Yes.

- Thank you very much for long periods.

Thank you for Sagawa.

- Oh, one more thing, how did you feel the medical profession was introduced and some news sites? w

Sagawa That was shocking. Kke when I changed jobs? The feeling that.

- Now that's really w Thank you very much.

Sagawa (w, Thank you.
