The 29 year old threatened Hudson 11 times from October 2008 to January 16, 2009.

He sent emails that said things like he was sending a bomb to the company that would kill everyone or demanding that 80 trillion yen be brought to JR Takamatsu Station.

The scary part is the suspect thought his bomb threats would make Hudson improve the quality of their games.

sounds like inspiration for a new board villian in mario party 9

I don't condone bomb threats, real or not, but damn, that is hilarious. Don't know why he didn't just...BUY A DIFFERENT COMPANY'S GAMES, but that's the Japanese for ya.

@ Oobgarm: Nicely done

That's awesome. That's like getting arrested for threatening to force choke George Lucas over the quality of his recent work.

Perhaps he was pissed that Hudson was slow to port Milon's Secret Castle to the PC.

He started making threats in October of last year and finally got arrested January 11th. He said that he made the threats to get Hudson to make their games better, but they didn't improve. In three months, he expected the games to be better? Does this retard not understand that games now take years to make, not weeks? Those games that he didn't think were all that good were started a long time ago. Good grief, you at least have to let a modern developer have a couple years time to improve at least, not a dozen weeks.

He sounds obsessed with Hudson. What are the odds that he's got a huge stash of PC Engine and PC-FX games at home? Probably a total fanatic for their stuff, and now he doesn't think that their 77th rehash of Bomberman really lives up to it's potential. He should have blown himself up, rather than threatening others.

How old is AVGN, again?

He DID just review Milon's.

Final question. Was he upset that Hudson didn't port a certain game to the pc or Wii?

[eugenek]

Sonic Team should be glad that that guy didn't like Sonic games instead.

[MegaDrive20XX]

I love Bomberman, but not that damn much..

[kainemaxwell]

He couldn't figure out Milon's Secret Castle either.

Don't know. Whatever the odds are, the odds are he ain't gonna be playing them for awhile unless the Japanese have gotten really soft on crime.
