Konami will not be at E3 this year

Konami: "Due to timing we will not be at E3 this year. We want to reassure our fans that we are in deep development on a number of key projects, so please stay tuned for some updates in the coming months."

I hope we will finally hear something about the projects the teams in Japan have been 'beavering away' on. https://www.metalgearinform...

Wait, Konami makes games?

I was never expecting them to be at E3.

I can't help but to think he was joking too.

Orchard1847d ago

Not a huge surprise - it's pretty rare to see a pachinko machine at E3.

Deathdeliverer1847d ago

Due to not having anything to show, we will not be attending. Please pass our main number to Kojima with our heart felt apologies and tell him to add a zero to whatever he’s asking for. Thank you.

As much as I'd like that to be the case their gambling division is probably still going strong

jukins1847d ago

I doubt thats the reason.. ill say this...look for konami to appear at another show. I mean i could be talking out of my ass orrrr lol

Deathdeliverer1847d ago

Dude. Let’s think of Konami latest hits. Metal Gear (Rip), Silent Hill- been going downhill since 2 but I’m optimistic. Castlevania seems to ONLY be good in 2d and then things get murky. I LOVED Rocket Knight Adventure as a kid. One of my favorite games of all time. Um..... then contra maybe? Oh I forgot about winning 11. I’m sure the jockeys out there hype af. Point is, if it’s one series they couldn’t afford to Jack up it was Metal Gear. I’m sure by now they realize that. Kojima was metal gear. Then he’s also even MORE like Zone of the Enders and snatcher.

Probably Tokyo Game Show

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing22d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit22d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing22d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9222d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

To be fair, there are also human made games that release and lack any fun at all either.

jznrpg25d ago

But all of the great games have been made by humans

jwillj2k425d ago

One is by choice, the other is a feature.

PRIMORDUS25d ago

Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.

CrimsonWing6924d ago

It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.
