They've given the finger to fans in the last couple of years.

What would it take for you to go running back into Konami's arms?

I think the best thing they've done in the last few years is allowing their properties (Metal Gear, Castlevania, Bomberman, Mystical Ninja) to be a part of Smash Ultimate, after everyone assumed that they didn't give a shit about game anymore and wouldn't allow it.

...Though that may also have more to do with the high pull that Sakurai himself has.

sell their IPs to people that actually want the them would be the best thing to do I think.

I agree with this. Sakurai has loads of clout in the Japanese dev world. The fact that so many IPs are even in Smash in any capacity is a marvel.

Which IPs in particular? I think it would be amazing to see a new Silent Hill game, even a remake with the love that Capcom has put into the Resident Evil games as of late.

I know, right? Though to be fair, many AAA developers have been slacking as of late, imo.

Agree. Konami has a nasty gambling habit. They need to cut that shit right out.

Wynn the Wind Channeler isn't censored in the slightest, and she's a great boost to WIND decks! With Ulti-Cannahawk becoming unlimited, things are looking better than in years. Now if only they would ban all the overpowered expensive staple cards, and nerf meta decks to compensate. The gap between meta+staples and nonmeta without staples has gotten ridiculous in the past years.

Metal Gear Rising 2

i dont mind if they choose not to continue MGS. I feel like the story has already been told. Big boss has his ending and so does solid snake

rising still has plenty of room for story however

people say they want a Boss prequel in WWII but I feel like it cant be done without Kojima

Sell the IPs so that they can be used. Silent Hill deserves a remake on par with the latest Resident Evil games. I think there are rumors of that happening anyways. There is still an audience for Castlevania given the success of Bloodstained, Hollow Knight, and so on. I'm sure people would lap up another Metal Gear Solid especially if Kojumbo was on board. Just make sure the IPs are in the right hands.

There's not any. If anything they've doubled down on video games recently. Saying they have several unannounced titles they're working on. Likely in response to the Japanese Government recently putting additional restrictions on pachinko parlors last year.

I suppose that's good news for us gamers.

Even if Japan's Covid numbers are as good as they say they are, people probably aren't playing as much pachinko during the pandemic.

Maybe they knew the well would dry up and they just wanted to get it while it was hot.

Maybe start releasing more classic compilations like the Castlevania one, and localize some games that haven't been like most of the Ganbare Goemon titles.

Other companies have been localizing old NES and SNES era games for the first time.

Pachinko is becoming an unsustainable business in Japan. Everyone in the industry can pretty much tell it's only a matter of time before it's basically banned or reduced to something like the redemption arcades in America so anyone smart is starting the transition to exit now. Kind of like how several gas stations in America are completely retooling how they operate to prepare for the eventual tobacco ban and even when gas itself isn't going to be sold anymore.

Konami has responded and said while the series isnt dead, these rumors arent true. The people who presented these rumors appear to still believe their sources to be accurate so well have to wait and see.

Yeah. They have a deep bag of games. They could easily release their old games on the Switch or Steam. It really doesn't make sense why they haven't already done this.

Lol, what does that even mean? Hopefully we see something. A Silent Hll Netflix series would be really cool. I love how Castlevania was a solid anime that took the source material seriously.

No idea. I can't think of a time a company has just said "no more x games ever" and it stuck unless it was for legal reasons like NCAA or NFL2k
