I understand.. but he says some weird things like:
"From 1993, Konami placed us on new projects and I came back to France to
follow all this up from far. I received from time to time one or two
cartridges coming from Japan as well as the already-cracked games from
Spain. I continued to crack them so I did not lose the hand on it and sent
them to Sacramento to say it was not worthwhile anymore to send cartridges
to test and that pirated copies were already there Konami then moved out of
the MSX scene in Europe."
So Konami moced out of the MSX scene in europe after 93? Sure....
"A big drawback of the MSX standard was that you needed whatever the machine
you were using to ensure all software was compatible with former versions
and with all MSX computers"
Sure, just like the PCs we now all use (well I'm using a Mac, but a Mac is
mostly backwards compatible too)
"The MSX Games Box: Could Konami be interested in this new project?
Well they have already put their new suits on and contacted their old teams
from 10 years ago they contacted me to be their consultant in France."
So Konami is forming the old teams again? Surely this guy must be mistaken
or he didn't understand the question? Now I'm confused :)
Overall, foggy! :)
Greetz,
Collin
