Forums - Gaming Discussion - New Bomberman from Konami: Taisen! Bomberman

Took them fucking long enough. They bought up Hudson Soft, one of THE best game developers in gaming's history, and then summarily absorbed them and effectively killed them off. And they have done exactly jack shit with all of their properties, POPULAR properties, since. You would have expected them to at least milk the Bomberman franchise, since it was Hudson's most popular, but this is the fist, to my knowledge, NEW game that they will have put forth on anything, in all this time.

I really miss Hudson Soft. I wish someone else, like Nintendo, would have bought them, that would have kept them going and we would still be getting new Bomberman, or Bonk, or Adventure Island, etc. games. Plus, to be honest, they were still making some very good original new IPs right up to the very end, like Lost in Shadow. RIP
