AI and automation have revolutionized the manufacturing sector with robots working alongside humans on factory floors. Now, those same sorts of technologies are beginning to find their way into corporate offices and are rapidly changing the way we conduct business.
Yuna & Tengai Makyo Collections hitting the PSP in Japan
If you've followed the path of Japanese gaming for a long time, you might recognize the titles mentioned in the subject line. It seems a listing has popped up at the Japanese retailer Game Star for two "Best Of" titles in Hudson's PC lineup -- Ginga Ojosama Densetsu Yuna (renamed Galaxy Fraulein Yuna in the anime episodes released in the US) and a Tengai Makyo collection. Select titles from both franchises are getting re-released on the PSP, which is exciting. Well, apparently the Yuna titles are the Sega Saturn games and not the PC ones, so they'll include an SRPG title, an adventure game, and some illustrations. Tengai Makyo gets two games and a fighting game, ostensibly. So, if you're an import fiend, keep your eyes out for the release of these.
Hudson Entertainment president talks about TG16 and Virtual Console
As you may have guessed, we're big Turbografx-16 fans here, so Brandon Sheffield's interview with Hudson USA president John Greiner, who was with the company through that system's lifetime, was an especially good read for us. The interview is long and detailed, and covers a lot of Hudson's lesser-known franchises like Tengai Makyou, as well as the fantastic Kato-chan and Ken-chan, which we got as JJ & Jeff. It also talks about how Hudson got into the Virtual Console biz.Here's the quote of the freaking millennium for us: "We're looking at...you know, eventually all Turbo Grafx games will be on the Virtual Console, because they're going to be emulations." Oh, no, wait, that's awesome, but here's the quote of the millennium: "We're going to work on the Turbo Grafx titles, but there were 600 some-odd PC Engine titles, and there were only 150 or so Turbo Grafx titles, so I think that if people tell us they want these games, absolutely." We cannot control our dancing. It is difficult to type at the moment.
