Konami Shuts Down Hawaii Studio

by Rainier on Aug. 2, 2006 @ 2:40 a.m. PDT

Local newspaper Honolulu Star-Bulletin is reporting that Konami is shutting down its Hawaian studio in Waikiki, and laying off 40 employees by end of this year. The development house has been reponsible for titles such as Frogger Beyond and Frogger's Adventures 2: The Lost Wand, as well as DDR Revolution Ultramix. The reason given was global reorganization of the company and shifting resources to its L.A. and Las Vegas facilities.
