In 1982 we held the first ‘Game Hobby Program Contest’ to find brilliant game developers in Japan. The competition was valued as an initiative that contributed to the development of the entire gaming industry in Japan. Many participants became game developers there. In Latin America the first step for Square Enix will be the Square Enix Latin America Game Contest 2012 where we hope to repeat our story.” Yasuhiro Fukushima, founder of Square Enix +++ SAE Institute México students invited to Square Enix Latin America Game Contest +++ Visiting Faculty Members add to the Producer’s Arsenal (A Course in Applied Music Theory) +++ +++ SAE Institute México students invited to Square Enix Latin America Game Contest +++ Visiting Faculty Members add to the Producer’s Arsenal (A Course in Applied Music Theory) +++ The ONE Recording competition at SAE Institute Mexico +++ S The contest rules are simple, there are no restric- tions on genre and content and development can be for smartphones, tablets or browsers.
