Say what you will about Square Enix CEO Yoichi Wada, but you can't deny he has a sense of humour. The executive has recently registered a Twitter account, and has already responded to several Internet memes that he features in.
The most prominent Wada meme is in constant use at blog site Kotaku, which refers to the CEO as “Imperial Hot”. This comes from a photo of a press conference at the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, where part of the venue's name was cut out of the image (you can see it in the image over there).
Andriasang noticed Wada's response on the social networking website, which reads “I've heard of 'Imperial Hot.' It sounds like a villain, though.”
A photoshopped image of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, that replaces Cloud with Tetsuya Nomura and Sephiroth with Wada, also caught the Squeenix boss' attention. Commenting on the pose used for the 'shop, he wrote “That picture is from MS@E3, right? The stupid looking one with the arms wide open. Those were the directions from MS's stage staff!!”
Seems like a down-to-earth kind of chap, really. You can follow him at @yoichiw.
