More Trouble For Tecmo and DOA Series

Posted by: crunchtime



In another blow to the Dead or Alive series through the Itagaki and Tecmo debacle, the president of the company has decided to call it quits. The article as seen on Kotaku gives a little insight to what has already happened and where the case may go. The gaming community also chimes in for some interesting opinions.

In an excerpt from the article:

"Yasuda has been at the center of the Itagaki vs. Tecmo legal suit. Dead or Alive creator Tomonobu Itagaki is suing for unpaid DoA 4 wages. These were "special incentive" wages that Itagaki claims were agreed to by the former Tecmo president and the board of directors, but the current president is claiming these "special incentive" wages were made single-handedly by the former president and not approved by the Tecmo board." -Brian Ashcraft

ugh! Although a new president could bring the possibility of getting Itagaki back since really all the games Tecmo has is NG and DOA.

I think EGM or Gameinformer has an interview with Itagaki. Just look for "Going Japanese" on the cover.
