more news about Itagaki and seriously these are shocking news.

n the statement Itagaki released in early June, he announced that he would be leaving Tecmo on July 1st. However, today it came to light that Itagaki was actually fired from Tecmo on June 18th — only weeks after he announced the suit. It's obviously possible to assume this termination was in retaliation to the lawsuit over bonuses he claimed he deserved. What's more, this preemptive act on Tecmo's part could also be seen as a way for the company to get out of paying Itagaki his fixed summer bonus and yearly incentives. According to Itagaki's statement released today, those were to be paid on June 30th. They of course were not.

ok what the heck is going on at tecmo?

How does his firing affect me?

there's a 50-50 chance that the ninja gaiden/dead or alive series might go down with the change of director.

but it doesn't necessarily affect YOU, i'm just reporting the news =/
 
I thought that might be the case, but either way I hope DOA continues. The story got left hanging.

Tecmo's in deep with this one. If Itagaki wins this, Tecmo's not going to be doing much of anything afterwards.
