"I, Tomonobu Itagaki, hereby announce that on the 14th of May 2008 I filed a complaint in the Tokyo District Court against Tecmo Co., Ltd. for unpaid completion bonuses, and against the President of Tecmo, Yoshimi Yasuda, for such unlawful acts as unreasonable and disingenuous statements made towards me, claiming damages in total of 148 million yen. I also announce that this complaint was delivered to the defendants on May 22nd of the same year.

In addition, I hereby announce that I have today submitted a letter of resignation to Tecmo Co., Ltd. stating that I will resign as of the 1st of July, 2008.

Before the start of development on DEAD OR ALIVE 4, Tecmo Co., Ltd. had agreed to pay a completion bonus to me for this Xbox 360 title, which I produced. However, when the time came for the actual payment, Tecmo Co., Ltd. went against its previous agreement and refused payment. President Yoshimi Yasuda chose not only to violate this agreement, but also turned defiant, telling me ?if you are dissatisfied with the decision not to pay the bonuses, either quit the company or sue it.? In addition, he made demeaning remarks about me to my subordinates and colleagues, causing me significant emotional distress and worsening my personal relationships and work environment. Thus, I have no choice but to resign from Tecmo Co., Ltd.

The conduct of Tecmo Co., Ltd. and its president Yoshimi Yasuda towards me has been unbefitting of a publicly-listed company.

I have filed this lawsuit with a strong intent to question the social responsibility of Tecmo Co., Ltd. and its President Yoshimi Yasuda, as well as condemning them for their unjust acts. Today, in addition to announcing the reasons for this lawsuit, I make clear my reasons for resigning.

To All Game Fans,

I truly feel sorry to all the fans of the games I have made. NINJA GAIDEN 2, which will launch on the 3rd of June will be the last NINJA GAIDEN I will create. I will also never be able to make DEAD OR ALIVE 5. I regret the circumstances that have forced me to leave Tecmo, where I had worked for so many years, and I regret the disappointment this will cause my fans.

However, I can no longer continue to work with President Yoshimi Yasuda, a man who chooses not to honor promises even when he is able to do so.

I truly hope that nothing like this happens again in the future.

Tecmo Co., Ltd. Creative Officer
Leader, Team NINJA

LOL WHAAAAT

From what I have read that itagaki guy is pretty outspoken. If you read his interviews u can see he has this rockstar attitude and is pretty direct and frank about his opinions until they can seem tactless. He kutuk ninja gaiden sigma if I remember correctly, saying that it is not revolutionary at all and said his subordinate yang buat. "The game is no good" he said.

I can understand if the president lost his temper and maybe can't handle his attitude anymore.

I remember reading in EGM, Itagaki told the interviewer, "Solutions to problems can be found in the bottom of a whisky bottle"

He also said Game developers should drink more. and that his favourite whisky is Jack Daniels.

He must have awful taste though. JD sucks hardcode. Any single malt scottish whisky is better than JD.

Wasn't as bad when he badmouthed the Tekken series ever since first Tekken game came out.

Quite frankly, I could care less about this sad dude. Is he trying to be next Uwe Boll in terms of video-games(with the exception that NGB is actually good, but isn't the pinnacle of action gaming)?

He's one arrogant SOB though. Claiming that DOA4 is the definitive fighting game, yea like hell it is. And now he goes on to be ignorant fool saying NG2 will be last NG game. Who cares what you say itagaki? NG doesn't belong to you.

And no, for the final time.... NG is NOT the definitive action game. DMC3 > NGB, its true fact that he refuses to accept.

Perhaps got unlimited health bar and hidden cheat codes to make the game less frustrating.

I have just played Ninja Gaiden 2, the framerate fluctuates, no doubt the graphics are flashy but I was wondering whether it will look better on the PS3 given the extra disc space on the blu-ray format and who nows, maybe the PS3 can make it a better game if it is built from scratch. Weird decision to make this game an exclusive game for the XBOX 360 when it could fare well on the PS3 too.

Extra disc space doesn't mean the game would look better.

The engine which drives NG2 is the exact same engine which was used years ago when the first NG came out on the Xbox. It hasn't been improved since then, no major updates to it. So I would say NG2 will look about as good as Sigma on the PS3. Personally, I think Sigma looks a little better than NG2 though(native 720p vs 585p), visuals wise that is. The gore in NG2 is an entirely different story.

I never play Ninja Gaiden Sigma(A HD version of Xbox NInja Gaiden Black with new event and new playable char, thats what i know) b4, so i cannot compare myself, maybe the graphic really dun have any improve compare to Ninja Gaiden Sigma or maybe Itagaki too rush to make this game, but this is just another NInja Gaiden series, it have new skill, power, new weapon, new enemy and new boss.

Pretty much a HD version of a "sub-HD" version of NG, which is NGB(since NGB can actually be upscaled to 720p). Rachel is playable, theres a new weapon, and some other extras here and there not really worth mentioning.

If Itagaki is rushing to complete NG2, then why call it the definitive action game, and that he has done everything he wanted in NG2?

NGS isn't made by Itagaki though.

I can tell u why Itagaki announce he quit the Team Ninja after the NG2 released.
Not direct design by Itagaki but still under Team Ninja.
Anyway DOA4 will be the last series of DOA at Xbox360, the best boobs game. laugh.gif

If Tecmo is smart, port NG2 over to the PS3. When Sigma was being ported to the PS3, you have no idea how much itagaki was b*tching during the process.

LOL, sometime u can be bored with real deal, not my real deal, the deal is lock with my wife now, JK. Actually just now Xbox360 only have few fighting game, if Tecmo cant make the DOA series by themselves, xbox360 really dun have a good japanese fighting game in the future. Virtual fighter just not my taste, Tekken is impossible for xbox360. doh.gif

Tekken is 100% arcade dude. You cant play it using the joypad. You need the greasy and the oily Malaysian arcade cabinet, complete with loose buttons on the arcade stick, with smoke buds all over the place nod.gif

And some emo opponenton the other side of the thing. laugh.gif

Ya.. my first play on Tekken1 is at Arcade, but after this i always use sony joypad to play the rest of the Tekken series at PS/PS2.
I remember me also play the DOA2 on arcade b4..... anyway fighting game always the best with Arcade joystick.

I kind of remember playing DOA4, and I only somehow managed to button mash it. It felt like, playing tekken, just that you need to do abit more same button presses. But the graphics are good and the combos are nice. I like Counter Holds most.

Hurm, him leaving Team Ninja sounds ok, but after the stocks plummet, I wonder what's Tecmo gonna do...

You guys forgetting Soul Calibur 4 coming out on the 360 as well?

Sure, not as deep as Tekken.... but nonetheless as good as Tekken is. Besides, when it comes to deepness of gameplay, Virtua Fighter is king.

Its just a different twist IMO, the core mechanics of SC comes from Tekken and DOA.

Guys, remember the Itagaki's sex harassment scandal which happened in the company like few years before? from what I've heard from japan sites, the company did cover him up so he could win the lawsuit.

Although it has nothing to do with current lawsuit but hey, in japanese society, even a minor accident you've caused, the company have all the rights to fire you to maintain the company's reputation. That's why some japanese gamers do think that Itagaki is stabbing the CEO back this time.

anyway, he's a joke to me, forget about this rock-star-wannabe-pervert for now.
I have no interest on his game so quit or not? It's not my problem.

Ya IUO, not mine. At Tekken and DOA u can enjoy each char ending with CG quality, but not at SoulCalibur.
