Is Ikeda is on sabbatical leave?

It looks to me like the game centers that are still around and survived the recent crash are doing fairly good business. But that's just from what my own eyes see.. who knows what the real story is.

The game center in my basement has been doing very slow business lately.

I meant that considering IKD said

I’m imagine something players can play online and compete with other players in that space. I think if we can realize something like that, a shooter that isn’t a one player experience, then shooting games can get more popular.

Maybe they should actually try that for once.

I wouldnt randomly want them to make those kinds of shmups without them already considering the idea.

No it was Asada who said that, in between rants about Instant Brain and adventure crapola.

Come to think of it, is there an English plot summary or synopsis of Instant Brain anywhere? I've still got no idea what the game's actually about...
