A very interesting Q&A interview with Yoichi Wada has revealed some information regarding FFXIII.

It seems that Wada is concerned with how games are accessible for their consumers, and despite wanting simultaneous releases of games, Square Enix might have to explore other avenues to get their games to gamers:

Q: FF13 is on its way, but in the current game market, the more you ship, the more your titles end up in used game stores, returning no profit to the developer. Given that, would it be possible for you to rent games out similar to movies?

Rather than renting out the physical media of titles, we're thinking more along the lines of an online solution.
