During the Windows XP era the PC was your primary development platform. With the success of Steam as a platform for selling niche titles, and especially with the success of XSEED's localisations, have you considered moving back to the PC as a primary platform? And if not, why not? TK: I feel that, within Japan, there are many core gamers who want to play on consoles and we must respond to their needs. However, revenue on Steam is very good and putting not only older console titles, but new ones as well is something that we want to consider.Source

 
Probably the reason that Xseed lost Tokyo Xanadu and Ys was the lack of steam ports for their newer title.

Interesting
They usually do Arc System works and Spike Chunsoft games .

I wonder what they will work on next considering Tokyo Xanadu came out.

I was close to buy the Ys Vita in sale few weeks ago.
