Hudson Entertainment will be shutting down at the end of the month.
All the future games and projects they were working on were canceled.
Some of the quoted reasons have been the bad communication and collaboration between Hudson's Japanese and American divisions and the growing indie movement (which, most Hudson titles, aimed for the same audience).
And what about the Japanese house Hudson Soft? They were aquired by Konami earlier in January 2011. They will now work on some Konami adaptations and focus on social gaming.
So it is the end of an era for me.
As a fan of the Arcade titles Hudson created during the 80s and 90s and Bonk, Bomberman and the PC Engine... It is sad news for us fans :(
I didn't had any proper fanart of Bomberman I did on my hands
apart from this little pixel-art experiment.
