Any excuse for a picture of the DoA girls!?

I wonder what he's going to work on next, and whether the quality of sequels to his Techmo games will suddenly take a dive without him. Random and surprising news really.

wow thats a real shame.

Publicity stunt. Coming on the heels of the Ninja Gaiden II release, it's all too coincidental for me to buy it. Chances are in the new few weeks Itagaki and Tecmo kiss and makeup once the sale records of NG2 are shown to be very good.

Judging by the picture in the article... he most likely will find a career producing animated pron.
