NowGamer: Konami Producer Dave Cox explains to NowGamer why Castlevania developer MercurySteam turned down PlayStation Move integration in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

Today, Konami announced its financial results for the first nine months of fiscal year 2026, between April 2025 and December 2025.
What happens when you make good games, keep it up konami, you've been doing great. Please do a AAA Castlevania too, or heck just start off remaking/remastering old games to play it safe.
Ironic. Also I guess the whole "fk Konami" phase is over now that they're selling remakes of already great games. People are easy to please, just rattle pretty graphics them.
Woah, making good games that people want to play pays off?
Someone tell Ubisoft and Square-enix!

Konami is planning to further expand the Silent Hill series beyond the remake of the first entry and Silent Hill: Townfall.
Very unlikely to happen, but I really wish they at least remastered Shattered Memories. From a story telling point, that is still my favourite title and I think it would fit really well as a VR game.
When I want to play silent hill game I always expect to get the same atmosphere I was see in SH 1 & 2 with deep and great story connect with silent hill city (not another city ) so if Konami want to continue release new games it should based on the success of these games.
In my opinion I think the game need :
- improve combat ( no more action just improve the combat and physics)
- another good and deep story
- improve creatures and enemies design
- add mysterious puzzles and it will be good if these puzzles connected with game story
- and of course Akira should involved in the project.
- create mysterious characters

Konami announced its financial results for the first half of fiscal year 2026, related to the period between April 2025 and September 2025.
Looks like Mobile is still their bread and butter. But I'm glad they are at least diversifying finally...
My god what I'd give for a new Castlevania game.... Still one of the coolest IPs in gaming.... I'd love to play a AAA Castlevania game that gets the god of war treatment.... Treat the whip like a character. Simon Belmont.... Dracula. Go.
@ Dave Cox your game is Too Gimmicky
Move is more advance then natal or wii
@The CELL : Dave Cox is an amazing game developer and has made amazing games. Just because some devs are finding it hard to cope with the move doesn't mean you bash them. Do you know how to make a game with move?
It cracks me up too see ps3 fanboys bashing professional developers..
"No, no I know more than you, it is really easy to make a game with the move, its very advanced technology"
While I agree that the move is advanced it maybe not suited for all the devs or genres of games out there. But still, if some devs r finding the move to be a "gimmicky" feature, then with that mindset, project natal wont have many games.
The guys not bashing Move, he's just bashing the idea of implementing motion controls into a game that is fairly advanced in its development, which for me is good news, I would hate to see development time being wasted by tacking this functionality on.
All motion controls are gimmicky.
@BeaArthur: True
@Applegate: Yea, i should have got used to n4g now considering ive been here quite a while but still...I love my pimp btw but never would react like how these fanboys in n4g do...
I guess there's no use in trying to reason with them...*sigh*
