Its Japanese prison, its fairly nice. Its like a neet in a nice apartment for 2 years.
Really, how do you know about the apartment? and what did he do that made him go to prison
Killed a kid
Making a game as bad as Balan Wonderworld
CP
He made Balan Wonderworld.
He was involved in the same insider trading scheme that Square Enix executives are involved in, and was set up to fail so that Square Enix didn't have to continue to pay his wages but got access and ownership of several of his properties and assets. Japanese prison is very VERY bad - There is no equivalent to cushy American maximum security prisons. However, he won't be going to prison. He received a stayed sentence and is essentially free, but unhireable. In the business community it's pretty well understood that this was punishment for Balan Wonderland failing so spectacularly. Many large companies in Japan will implicate or involve their employees in white-collar crime in order to blackmail them later. However, I suspect Naka involved himself of his own volition, greed, and ambition and that was used against him like he knew it would be.
I get that they won't have to pay him once he's in jail, but how does that give the company his personal IP?
>Its Japanese prison, its fairly nice
lol no they're the worst prisons in the developed world
he's going to tokyo based prison. it's not like he's going to countryside prison.
QRD?
balan flopped
square enix blamed him and fired him
before they fired him he did insider trading
he was found guilty
>Buy shares of a gacha game company due to info he learnt while working at Square
>Gets caught
>game has environmental storytelling
Society turned him into Shadow Balan.
Two years ain't bad honestly.
i thought it was a 4 year suspended sentence. has he broken his terms already?
has Ganker ever done time
Nope, hopefully never
Either you get raped or killed prisons
I got detention ONCE in 6th grade. That's my wrap, and if you all want to cower in fear, I won't blame ya
a fat rope of piss just fell out of my shorts, please don't hurt me
I did 20 years in the can, not a peep.
This is what happens after you wear the hat.
He did become Shadow Balan after all.
frick you Black folk, Balan has SOVL. something most modern games completely lack. yeah it wasn't 10/10, but it also wasn't the 2/10 everyone treats it as. stop getting your opinions from e-celebs and twitter.
If the game was made with zero involvement of yuji naka it could've actually been good
Suspended sentence. No jail time. Just a fine.
Hope he gets to work on Balan Wonderworld 2 while inside.
Imagine if all the Sonic games were fricking amazing all of a sudden
