Thunderbolt Games: "It's irking to see a series with plenty of untapped potential fail to claim what's rightfully made possible through the immediate gratification of a platform such as the Xbox 360's Live Arcade. Although perhaps we should be thankful that the developer's didn't over-exert themselves over another broken platformer nightmare, such as so many Xbox titles. Sticking to your guns sometimes is the most appropriate move you can make, although the achieved end result might not be spectacular. While I don't believe this was the right thing to do entirely in this particular situation, god bless Konami for not continuing upon the downward spiral that had been every sequel to the Frogger saga. The better way to go might've been not to release Frogger as a singular game, or to hold off on some kind of Konami's Greatest Hits compilation."
Recognised as one of the biggest video game manufacturers not just in Japan, but worldwide, it’s no wonder that Konami are still running high. Founded in 1969, the firm initially began as a repair and rental business in Osaka for Jukeboxes and arcade cabinets, but by the 1970’s they were designing video games. While Konami is one of the most prominent AAA Japanese developers, its influence in gambling is just as prominent. Arcade games and slot machines worldwide still hold the Konami label, and with an online presence in addition, there’s no denying that Konami is still as popular as it has ever been – just perhaps more quietly. To celebrate Konami’s fruitful past, however, we’re looking back at some of the best and most influential games that Konami has ever released.
Thankfully the Netflix show and the awesome PC game CASTLEVANIA LACARDE CHRONICLES 2 came out this year. When Konami decided to become scumbags, fans stepped in.
