Another soap opera is unfolding within the gaming industry and this time it will most likely not be as comical as the John Romero-Mike Wilson feud. This one promises to get a bit messy.
TECMO has issued a response to Tomonobu Itagaki’s allegations against the company in which he claimed that TECMO had failed to pay bonuses and plans on suing them. In kind, TECMO released a statement this morning which reads:
Our company getting sued by this employee is huge problem… the reasons for making this lawsuit public are self-centered. What’s more, this employee is filing this suit for himself and making it seem like he alone is responsible for the development of the game titles the rest of the Team Ninja staff had poured its heart into.
Team NINJA is currently working on a line-up of new titles. All of Team NINJA is starting to work together on interesting new game titles.
Translated by Kotaku, the statement goes on to mention Itagaki’s sexual harassment suit, the bonuses, promises made by other management, etc. Wow.
