Takahashi Meijin On Likelihood of Hudson Hardware Return…

Hudson Soft no longer makes video games consoles, but at one time, it did. Best known for the PC Engine (TurboGrafx-16), Hudson stepped out of the home hardware market it in 1999 in Japan. In the years that followed, the company was purchased by Japanese developer Konami.

Don’t expect that any time soon or like ever, but hey, nice to see that those two main programmers are at Hudson. Loyalty is important.
