《忍龙》制作人起诉Tecmo 并正式辞职 _ 游民星空 GamerSky.com

　　上个月，Team Ninja首席制作人，《忍者龙剑传》监督板恒扮信在接受采访时曾经表示《忍者龙剑传2》将是系列的最后一部。周一晚，今天更是爆出这次事件的惊人内幕。板恒扮信不仅推出Tecmo，而且将多年的雇主告上法庭。并且宣布告别多年来精心打造的《忍龙》系列和《死或生》系列。

　　这里翻译原文件内容：

　　日本时间2008年6月3日下午2：30分，板恒扮信的助理发给各大媒体的消息大致如下：

　　“我，板恒扮信正式声明，2008年3月14日，我向东京地方法院对Tecmo Co., Ltd拒绝支付‘游戏完成奖金’，以及该公司总裁安田善巳对我个人的言辞攻击提起诉讼，并要求总共148，000，000日元的赔偿。这份声明已经于5月22日交给被告。今天，我已经正式向Tecmo Co. Ltd提出辞职。

　　在《死或生4》开发计划启动之前，Tecmo同意支付游戏完成奖金。然而，到真正支付的日期，却拒绝支付报酬。总裁安田善巳不仅无视法律，而且无理威胁我如果不满，那么或者辞职，或者起诉。并以侮辱性言辞攻击我的属下和同事，对我的精神造成很大损害，并恶化了我的人际关系及工作环境。

　　针对Tecmo以及总裁安田善巳的行为，我强烈质疑Tecmo的公共责任感。并就此向公众澄清我辞职的原因。

　　同时，板恒扮信给所有fans写了公开信：

　　我感谢所有的粉丝。6月3日发售的《忍者龙剑传2》将是系列的最后一部作品。我将不会制作《死或生5》。对离开工作多年的Tecmo感到遗憾和惋惜。然而，我别无选择，因为我无法与完全无视诺言的安田善巳共事。希望未来不会再有类似事件发生。

　　同时，也有消息指出两人更深层的分歧早已存在，板恒扮信对总裁只关注利润，轻视游戏品质的态度积怨很深。虽然没有在公开信和起诉中特殊提及，然而，Tecmo为Wii制作的Rygar和PS3上的《忍者龙剑传Sigma》很可能是板恒扮信发难的原因所在。结合最近板恒扮信的关于《忍者龙剑传2》移植PS3的蔑视和否定，这些消息却有一定的可信度。

　　同时，之后，在1up对板恒扮信的采访中，这位制作人表示下一部作品将是暴力级别不输给《忍龙》的动作游戏。

　　官方声明的原文如下：

　　“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.
