Tomonobu Itagaki is certainly a peculiar figure in the gaming industry. The designer, who is mostly known for creating popular games like Dead or Alive and Ninja Gaiden, doesn’t really hold back whenever he goes on record.

That happened once again recently, when Itagaki was interviewed by Polygon’s James Mielke. The interview is centered around Itagaki’s latest production, Devil’s Third, developed by his Valhalla Game Studios and released for Nintendo’s WiiU last year.

When asked about a potential sequel, he mentioned his uncertainty in regards to console hardware after PlayStation 4 Pro and the upcoming Xbox Scorpio. He then went ahead to say that Microsoft and Sony are making these enhanced consoles because of Virtual Reality, since the original PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are not powerful enough.
