●板垣氏が提訴

　テクモ株式会社のクリエイティブオフィサー板垣伴信氏は2008年6月3日、テクモ株式会社と同社代表取締役社長・安田善巳氏に対し、民事訴訟を提起したとする声明を発表した。また、同声明にて、”ゲームファンの皆様へ”とするコメントを発表した。声明の全文は以下のとおり。

報道関係者各位殿
平成20年6月3日

声明文

　私、板垣伴信は、テクモ株式会社（東証一部：9650）に対し未払いとなっている成功報酬、同社代表取締役社長安田善巳氏に対し私に理不尽・不誠実な発言を行うなど不法行為を行ったことについての慰謝料、合わせて1億4800万円の支払いを求め、本年5月14日に東京地方裁判所に提訴し（事件番号：東京地方裁判所平成20年（ワ）第12845号）、同年5月22日に訴状が被告らに送達されたことを公表致します。
　また、私は、本年7月1日付でテクモ株式会社を退社する旨の通知を、本日同社に提出したことを、ここに発表致します。

　テクモ株式会社は、私が開発を監督したXbox 360用ゲームソフト『DEAD OR ALIVE 4』の成功報酬を支払う旨を私との間で合意しておきながら、いざ報酬の支払時期がくると、合意に反して報酬の支払いを拒絶しました。また安田善巳社長は、合意を反故にするだけでは飽き足らず、私に対し「会社を辞めるなり、裁判を起こすなりすればよい」と開き直りました。しかも、私の部下や同僚に対し、私の評価を貶める発言を行い、私に重大な精神的苦痛を与え、私の人間関係、職場環境を悪化させたのです。そのため、私はテクモ株式会社を退職せざるを得なくなりました。

　テクモ株式会社と安田善巳社長が私に対し行った一連の行為は、東証一部上場企業としてあるまじきものです。
　私は、テクモ株式会社と安田善巳社長が行った不当な行為を糾弾し、その社会的責任を問い質すという強い意志のもとに、本件訴訟を提起しました。そして、本日、本件訴訟提起の理由を公表するとともに、私の退社の理由をここに明らかに致します。

ゲームファンの皆様へ

　私が作るゲームのファンの皆様には、本当に申し訳なく思っています。6月5日に発売されるNINJA GAIDEN 2が、私の作る最後のNINJA GAIDENです。また私がDEAD OR ALIVE 5を作ることももうありません。長年尽くしてきたテクモを去ること、そしてファンの方々のご期待に背くことになりとても残念です。
　しかし、守れる約束を守ろうともしない安田善巳社長と、一緒に仕事をすることはできないのです。
　今後、このようなことが二度と起きぬことを、心から願っています。

テクモ株式会社
クリエイティブオフィサー　Team NINJA部長
板垣伴信（自筆署名、印鑑）

　=================================================

　国外媒体1UP紧急报道，《忍者龙剑传》以及《死或生》系列制作人坂垣伴信辞职，从此以后将离开TECMO，不再开发相关游戏。

　　板桓伴信在公开信中确认已经在2008年5月14日在东京地区法院起诉Tecmo公司，要求赔偿1.48亿日元。此外，板桓伴信将于2008年7月1日正式向Tecmo提出辞职。

　　在制作DOA4之前，Tecmo曾经许诺给板桓伴信完工奖，但是DOA4完成后总裁Yoshimi Yasuda拒绝支付，表示如果板桓伴信不满意可以辞职和起诉。所以板桓伴信只能被迫离开Tecmo。

　　对玩家的话：NG2将是板桓伴信制作的最后一个NG游戏，此外板桓伴信也将没有机会制作DOA5。板桓伴信对此深感抱歉，但是形势所迫不能不离开Tecmo。

　　除了板桓伴信的公开信外，1UP还从其它渠道得知一些内幕。板桓伴信和Yasuda的矛盾还在于Yasuda过于关于盈利而不是游戏质量。板桓伴信对推出PS3的NGS非常不满，而且Yasuda之前还有计划准备发行360版NGS。

《忍者龙剑传》和《死或生》系列制作人，Tecmo旗下Team Ninja小组负责人坂垣伴信今天发表公开声明称，由于与Tecmo之间的劳资纠纷无法得到妥善解决，他将就此辞去在Tecmo的一切职务，同时向东京地方法院起诉之前老东家拖欠奖金的恶劣行经。

坂垣伴信在致媒体的公开信中透露，X360游戏《死或生4》正式开始制作以前，Tecmo曾答应他游戏完工后会付给他一笔数额不菲的奖金，然而事后公司高层却拒绝旅行当初的承诺，特别是Temco社长安田善巳（Yoshimi Yasuda）在这一问题上不仅食言，而且还出言不逊激怒了他。

据坂垣伴信称，社长安田善巳曾就《死或生4》奖金问题对他说“如果你因为这件事感到不爽，大可以辞职或是起诉。”除此之外，坂垣伴信还称安田善巳在自己的下属和同僚们面前诋毁自己的名誉，不仅毁了自己在Tecmo的工作环境和人际关系，而且对他本人造成了严重的精神伤害。

坂垣伴信要求Tecmo和社长安田善巳为其毫无信用的行为负责，同时提出了高达1亿4千8百万日元的巨额赔偿要求。与此同时，坂垣伴信也向所有支持他以及他的游戏的玩家致歉，他表示自己不会再开发任何一款《忍者龙剑传》或是《死或生》，因为他所遭遇的不公正待遇迫使他不得不离开Tecmo。

坂垣伴信的辞职，对他今后在游戏业的发展究竟意味着什么，我们现在还无法预测。据坂垣伴信的代理人介绍，现在暂时还无法就今后的相关事宜做出说明，但会在时机成熟的时候向外界公开更多事情的进展。

Last month, Team Ninja head and Ninja Gaiden director Tomonobu Itagaki suggested in an interview that he would be done with the franchise after the upcoming release of Ninja Gaiden 2. On Monday night we received a clearer picture of just what he meant with the announcement that Itagaki is leaving Team Ninja and suing Tecmo.

1UP received the following confirmation of this news from Itagaki aide Andrew Szymanski:

"At approximately 2:30 PM Japan Standard Time today, June 3 2008, an official statement from Tomonobu Itagaki was sent by fax to major Japanese news outlets. In the interest of fair and expedient reporting of this story throughout the English-speaking world, I have been asked by Itagaki to convey this statement to you. Herein find attached Itagaki's official statement, in English, for the benefit of your readers.
"...You will likely have questions regarding the content of the statement, or about Itagaki's future plans. I am afraid that I will be unable to answer such questions for the time being; however, rest assured that more information will be forthcoming as soon as it is deemed appropriate to do so."

The full text of the letter from Itagaki follows:

"I, Tomonobu Itagaki, hereby announce that on the 14th of May 2008 I filed a complaint in the Tokyo District Court against Tecmo Co., Ltd. for unpaid completion bonuses, and against the President of Tecmo, Yoshimi Yasuda, for such unlawful acts as unreasonable and disingenuous statements made towards me, claiming damages in total of 148 million yen. I also announce that this complaint was delivered to the defendants on May 22nd of the same year. In addition, I hereby announce that I have today submitted a letter of resignation to Tecmo Co., Ltd. stating that I will resign as of the 1st of July, 2008.
"Before the start of development on Dead or Alive 4, Tecmo Co., Ltd. had agreed to pay a completion bonus to me for this Xbox 360 title, which I produced. However, when the time came for the actual payment, Tecmo Co., Ltd. went against its previous agreement and refused payment. President Yoshimi Yasuda chose not only to violate this agreement, but also turned defiant, telling me 'if you are dissatisfied with the decision not to pay the bonuses, either quit the company or sue it.' In addition, he made demeaning remarks about me to my subordinates and colleagues, causing me significant emotional distress and worsening my personal relationships and work environment. Thus, I have no choice but to resign from Tecmo Co., Ltd.

"The conduct of Tecmo Co., Ltd. and its president Yoshimi Yasuda towards me has been unbefitting of a publicly-listed company. I have filed this lawsuit with a strong intent to question the social responsibility of Tecmo Co., Ltd. and its President Yoshimi Yasuda, as well as condemning them for their unjust acts. Today, in addition to announcing the reasons for this lawsuit, I make clear my reasons for resigning.

"To All Game Fans

"I truly feel sorry to all the fans of the games I have made. Ninja Gaiden 2, which will launch on the 3rd of June will be the last Ninja Gaiden I will create. I will also never be able to make Dead or Alive 5. I regret the circumstances that have forced me to leave Tecmo, where I had worked for so many years, and I regret the disappointment this will cause my fans. However, I can no longer continue to work with President Yoshimi Yasuda, a man who chooses not to honor promises even when he is able to do so. I truly hope that nothing like this happens again in the future."

In addition to the allegations made in the letter, we've heard rumblings that Itagaki believes that Yasuda has focused too much on making a profit without a regard for quality. While Itagaki's official announcement does not point to any specific releases, recent Tecmo ports such as Rygar for the Wii and Ninja Gaiden Sigma for the PS3 are possible targets of Itagaki's anger, which would also explain recent interviews where Itagaki has been especially negative toward Sigma and has said that a PS3 port of Ninja Gaiden 2 would not be good. We've even heard rumors that Yasuda wanted to port Ninja Gaiden Sigma (a PS3 port of a rerelease of an Xbox title) to the Xbox 360 before he was talked out of it by Itagaki and others at Tecmo.

In the same interview we linked to above, Itagaki mentions that he intends for his next game to be "a brand new action game" that will be violent like Ninja Gaiden. It's safe to assume that this game will not be with Tecmo and probably that Itagaki knew that already when he started discussing it. We cannot speculate further as to what Itagaki might be up to next, but considering the timing, there's clearly some very bad blood between Itagaki and Tecmo. The outspoken game maker waited until the evening before Ninja Gaiden 2's release to make this announcement, which is sure to leave a slightly bitter taste in the mouths of many fans picking up their next dose of blood-soaked action.

We'll update with further details on Itagaki's departure and lawsuit as they are uncovered.
