pachinko hell.

If Capcom does make Remake 2 and it turn out better than Remake 1 then I will forgive capcom of all the bullshit in the past.
And if they make Megaman Legends 3 and it turns out good I will buy 100 copies of Operation Racoon City brand new
They rarely understood what made their games good in the first place. Still mad about the "spiritual sequel" to Azure Dreams.
Also, pachinko. I wouldn't be surprised if they have heavy ties to the Yakuza.

Not sure if something went wrong but they just moved away from AAA console games. I thought it was pretty apparent they were moving away from it during the ps3/wii/360 era because they had no new IP and old IP was pretty much dead. All they had left was Kojipro pumping out MGS, outsourced a few franchises like CV and SH and KCEJ pretty much making PES. I think the last IP I remember was Never Dead or was it Never Die? Don't remember but it bombed hard.
Konami is a pure holding company now.

They have a small share in a shrinking market.
Letting Kojima go was an objectively smart business move, too.
Degenerate gambling empire

Literally every Japanese vidya company has Yakuza ties.
Actually, scratch that: every Japanese company has Yakuza ties.
They run shit in Japan and everyone knows it.

Doo doo doo, doot doot doot
Doot doot doot, doo doo doo

This along with them relying on Sony and to a lesser extent Microsoft. Serves them right.
They'd rather finance gambling and make a lot of quick cash instead of forging a new market and making a humbler long-term.
They will suffer for it. They are at the whim of degeneracy and there is nothing special about gambling. Anyone can do it, and gamblers are not exactly stingy when it comes to their needs. They don't give a shit about a slot machine's intellectual property. Oh boy, this slot machine has Silent Hill on it - how exciting.

>and gamblers are not exactly stingy when it comes to their needs.
And they will bleed dry, leaving Konami not money to "earn" in future. They'll be gone in maximum two years.

MGSV and Castlevania:LOS2
They were always shit, but no one noticed until Kojima left. Literally nothing has changed
