10 Insane Gaming Facts That Will Blow Your Mind

6. Square-Enix Relocated Based On A Fortune Teller€™s Advice

Yoichi Wada must be a very superstitious man as in 2004 Square-Enix moved their headquarters from Meguro to Shinjuku. This is so bizarre that it€™s almost impossible to believe, but here it is from acclaimed Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu himself:

" Wada took a couple of locations to a fortune teller named Pao. Pao said the Meguro space was not going to bring any fortune to the company, and pointed to Shinjuku. That's why he decided to move it there. I heard this directly from Wada."
Apparently that fortune teller was way off if Square€™s recent success is anything to go off of. There€™s still a chance for redemption with Kingdom Hearts 3 though!
