Itagaki unloads evidence, raises damages claim
With Tecmo's attempts at getting a gag order failing and bad blood still staining the Tecmo name, Tomonobu Itagaki is steadfast in following through with the lawsuit against his former boss with the introduction of new evidence and an increase in his damages claim.Recently, Itagaki submitted all kinds of documents and recordings as evidence to help his case against Tecmo, where he claims they owe him all kinds of cash. The documents include signed contracts and a transcript of a recording between Itagaki and Tecmo president Yoshimi Yasuda where they discussed and agreed on contract terms. Also, with the new evidence coming to light, Itagaki has increased his lawsuit's damages from $1.3 million USD to $1.5 million USD. Itagaki is raging mad. Don't mess with a raging mad Itagaki.

I've got $1.5 USD in my pocket. Oh, you meant $1.5M USD... ;-)

Tecmo stepped in a very, very....very deep puddle :P

I'm not sure if I'm up with all my money writing knowledge, but do you need an "M" after the "1.3" and "1.5"?

Greedy bastard. What's he going to do with an extra 20 cents?

He'll go to a Lion's Club machine and get a hand full of Chicletes!

Seems like an awful lot of hassle over $1.30 - $1.50. I mean, I knew times were tough, but maybe we can take up a collection or something? Maybe kick the guy a couple items off the dollar menu and settle this madness now?

it's million, million I say!

The_Punisher @ Jul 24th 2008 12:04PM
You just don't appreciate good humor :)
Maybe you should go watch Nintendo's Press Conference, it's the joke of the year!

HE4VENSENT @ Jul 24th 2008 12:22PM

You guys should post news under your own names again, instead of under the anonymous "X3F Staff".

Meh. I'd have more compassion for Itakagi-san if I hadn't blown $60 on NGII, a game which is needlessly frustrating and cheap and suffers from terrible, terrible camera problems. I love Ninja Gaiden and even completed it on the next-to-hardest difficulty through months of frustration - it was extremely hard but always fair. I think the man has become vindictive - he has taken it out on his fans and now he's doing it to Tecmo. I'd like to see him get nothing except an unemployment check...
