By the way in the recent financial report their pachinko business took a hit.

http://www.gamespot.com/articles/metal-gear-franchise-sales-top-49-million-as-konam/1100-6442238/
Quote
Revenue for the quarter was 49.4 billion yen (about $481.5 million), down 3.5 percent from what the company generated during the same period last year. Operating profit, though, was up 9.1 billion yen ($88.7 million)--up 40.2 percent year-over-year.

This comes despite the company's pachislot business taking a big hit, earning 88.2 percent less in revenue than last year and actually losing money for the quarter. Konami can thank its Health and Fitness category and, to a larger extent, its Digital Entertainment segment (which covers console and mobile games) for turning a profit.

It's better than to live long enough to turn into pachinko, for sure.




too late for that
Oh wow, that's…something. RIP.

I didn't want to watch it... but then I was like "I don't know, Pachinko can be fun sometimes." and I made the fatal mistake of watching it.

I think it's time for my meds.

to update you all on the copy of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom pain i purchased in september 2015, the shrink wrap has now been broken and it has been played. not by myself but by my brother who i gave it to. although yesterday i had that desire most rare, to play a video game. i considered taking my x box 360 out of the bag it has been packed in for the past several years but i lifted some weights instead

I think that this coffin has enough nails in it. Why bother more, or Konami wants it to look like a hedgehog?

Are they cloning Resident Evil, now? And borrowing ideas from Silent Hill, or whatever?

I love the fact that I have no idea what pachinko is supposed to be from the trailers.

hmm this metal gear walking dead game with its own theme song is definitely a product of konami and certainly not something informed by hideo kojima's pop culture obsessions and thievery that didn't get finished in time
