"Konami has removed Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance from their Xbox Japanese release list, Konami mentioned that if the hardware installed base for Xbox achieved a certain level, they will continue to publish game titles for the platform. Right now Konami will focus on publishing game titles in North America and Europe for Xbox."
Haha, if they've already COMPLETED the damn game (or..when they do complete it), I see little point in not releasing it.
Development and other costs would've already been spent, so even meager sales (and even if every Japanese with an XBOX bought it, it would still be meager
) would at least be a little extra profit.

Oh, you mean like with the American release of Shen Mue? Microsoft and the X-Box can suck my wang, this is payback.

The difference with that was that Sega had already had an exclusive contract to make Shenmue II, a practically finished game, XBOX-only in the US.
I'm sure Konami isn't doing this because they signed up for exclusive rights with Sony, but because they'd be lucky to have one potential customer in every city or town.![]()
