They should all go mobile

Konami is still making games? Well Ill be damned...

Fuck you Konami.

Create and release Suikoden 6 for more sales.

They are also working on Silent Hills.

But yeah mobile and of course arcades where they have always been strong.

Edit - Oh and Castlevania, LoS2 was fairly recent. Wonder if they will continue the series after this though

Konami should expand. Would be nice to get some more AAA console games coming from Japan.

Excellent picture of the mobile target group ghe should go for.. They'll never touch a console..

They also make a shitty Castlevania game once in a while.
