Konami announced today it will not be attending this year's E3 expo. While that may not be very surprising given the publisher's lack of interest in the video game space lately, what may be more intriguing to fans is its announcement that it is "deep in development on a number of key projects," and updates will be coming on those titles in the following months. While no specific details have been announced, Konami owns the intellectual property to several iconic gaming series that fans feel have been underserved lately, such as Metal Gear Solid, Castlevania, Contra and Bomberman.

I would shit myself if they remade not only the Zelda Oracle games on Switch, but also a third Oracle game to make it a trilogy. One can dream...

Oracle of Dreams? Sleep and Wake cycles could be a cool gameplay mechanic, Going into the dream world to fix problems with the waking world, and vice versa. I dunno, Nintendo hire this person.

Uhh...did you mean to post this somewhere else...?

I actually don't mind real Pachinko machines; enjoyed them in Tokyo just as much as rolling Gacha at the local Shizuoka Onsen for Hello Kitty drops. It is quite relaxing to sit there and watch those balls roll but, as with any Gambling, moderation and a realistic mindset about winning are key.

That said, I do remember a time when KONAMI was synonymous to Games I enjoyed, especially in the Original Playstation era. I would be happy to see them reach those Gaming heights again in the future.

Di-Did you just passively include a Nintendo application in your post, posted on a website aimed at hackz/piracyz® ?


As for Konami: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Guys, can I interest you in a pachinko video game with microstransactions... and no way to cash out?

"in deep development on a number of key projects"

a.k.a their bankruptcy filing (or merger)
Konami banks on pseudo-gambling machines. Don't kid.
