Itagaki Legally Kicking Ass! - Jul 24, 2008 22:51
Well, here are the latest developments on the Itagaki vs Tecmo war. 
Itagaki didn't leave, he was fired
Tecmo backs its gag order on Itagaki

Evidence
So far, all the chips seem in Itagaki's favor. I wonder how much more evidence the guy has.

What a mess. I wonder where it all went wrong for Tecmo, and why the new president took such a change in stance.

Sod Itakagi (good luck to him btw), I'd wanna interview Yasuda! :D

It just seems that Yasuda dude is a dick. BTW, thanks for the status change Adam!
Edit:Pictures

If anyone does read Japanese kanji here on Kikizo, then feast your eyes. For all of us illiterates, it may not make much sense, but it's obvious Itagaki is presenting hard copies to his Tecmo ass-whooping section. The link has pics of all the contracts, evidence and even the transcript of a conversation between Tecmo's president and a Team Ninja producer, all presented in court.

He certainly keeps to his image. Why would anyone hate the guy.

Here is the translation to the conversation taped by Okamoto, one of Team Ninja's producers, that he had with president Yasuda. It's a little hard to follow, but man, this stuff is getting good

i read the translated conversation taped.
Wow! reminds me of when you finish MGS and MGS snake eater where someone is talking to someone else and you are wondering wft is going on...who is that...then you here "Mr. President".
Except this is real life. 
So they fired Itagaki, he's definitely got a case for unpaid $$ and he should get that, but the credibility of Tecmo is very grim.
You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
