      It was scripted:
      I'm knowledgeable about these Gematria rituals all top companies do.
      'konami b come a bad company' gets 966 in Satanic Gematria.
      You can see this on the Gematrinator calculator.
      966 is a hidden 666-code. They just flip sixes to make nines.
      Any 666-code in the Satanic category is confirmation a ritual was performed.
      Konami had their time to shine (like Sega). Sega failed deliberately.
      I don't know how this will develop. Maybe they'll reemerge in good shape in the future.

    Fun fact, this game was one of the games produced by Masayuki Ohashi, who later go on to produce Gashaaaan's sister games Byon Byon and The BishiBashi, and CastleVania: The Arcade!

    Pretty sure there’s a row of these cabinets at Narita as soon as you get off the plane. I don’t think they have as many of them at Haneda though.

    Very cool. I'll have to check it out. Since it uses mouse controls, I presume it will work with the Sinden light gun?
