To quote IGN "Everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong."
Check the review out for yourself.

Game Developer magazine includes a creator-written postmortem on the making of Square Enix's Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life As a King, the company's first WiiWare effort.
"We knew that My Life as a King was going to be a different kind of game compared to our usual titles. So for our development process, we wanted to have flexibility above all else, and we hoped to gain that by relying on a script language. After a little bit of testing, we decided to use Squirrel." - lead programmer Fumiaki Shiraishi

More Breath of Fires?

We can hope right? When interviewed here is what came up:
Cubed³'s Adam Riley: Considering your current deal with Capcom, and the fact that the company has left its Breath of Fire series untouched for far too long, would you ever give consideration to tackling the resurrection of that RPG franchise?

The Takahashi Brothers: We get asked this a lot recently. The development team is extremely important in making an RPG and when some of the team left after Mario Tennis GBA we had to say it wasn’t possible. Lately, however, the gap is being filled and I’m quite confident to take on pretty much anything. It is possible to start planning for titles such as the Breath of Fire series. As I mentioned earlier, the number of games we can develop at a time is quite limited so we would like to consider what people want the most in order to determine the next title for development.

Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift review from Eurogamer

Battles lack urgency without the narrative drive and purpose, a problem exacerbated by a super-gentle difficulty curve. Every mission on offer to your clan is given a difficulty rating and, providing you stick to battles around your current level, you'll rarely even need to heal characters mid-fight.
