It could be worse, they could be going totally bankrupt.
Aw man, sad news indeed.
It's happening everywhere, sometimes for the better (e.g. Eidos - no Hitman games in years, gets brought by Square Enix, we get a new Hitman game).

One of my favourite old school game companies... Yeah, most of their stuff was produced by others, but... so many of my favourite games say Hudson on them. That strange girly voice... "by Husason" at the beginning of some games (ie. Saturn Bomberman). So sad!
My dreams for a PC Engine 2 have just become less likely.
Relax.
At least they're being absorbed by a game company and not outright disbanded.
Not that Konami means anything worthy though.
You could replace Hitman with Deus Ex too.Quote:

I would check Wikipedia but my connection's all piss-poor today and won't load it (and other sites) for some fucking reason. It's either my connection or some SOPA-related shit is going on. (EDIT: It wasn't my connection)
Konami has basically run Hudson for a few years now anyway. It's just... now it will be completely gone.Quote:

I wonder, is Bomberman entirely dead now? I hope not, but we'll have to see.
RIP Hudson;they gave me awesome ass games.
