Next Generation understands Yuji Naka is planning to set up his own studio. It is possible that the new company will be allied with Sega through some financial arrangement, but details are unknown.

:OOO (not much more there but eh)

For those not In The Know, Naka is basically an egotistical bastard who goes ballistic any time he doesn't get his way and claims to have created Sonic when that is in fact false. Further details can be supplied for the curious.

I'm most curious about the ballistic part of your post.

Heh, whatever that new studio might be, seems like it'll still be somewhat part of SEGA.

The Sonic X-Treme team was given the NiGHTS engine without his knowledge and he found out and flipped out and demanded that it be taken away from them and they be forced to write another engine and throw away half a month of work (and they were pushing the clock as it was). Also, when Sonic 3 was in development at STI in America he demanded that all the American members be removed from the team, so they were put to work making Spinball. Of course, he always threatens to leave SEGA if they refuse his demands.

Meh, let him. While I respect Naka, he doesn't keep Sonic alive and successful... He can have a hissyfit somewhere else.

Yuji is someone who starts a lot of debates, but I, for one, (having heard his interviews/speaches) think that he does deserve a lot more credit than he gets... he has an ideal, and he sticks to it...

besides, he gets nearly-full credit for the design and form for Sonic 2

As long as his leave doesn't effect the Sonic series, I'm fine with it.

I know it's necromancy, but there's an UPDATE!

He's not forming a restaurant (lawl) as hinted in the April Fool, but he is forming his own studio: PROPE (which looks a lot like "PROBE," which oddly makes me think of anal probing, which proceeds to make me want to puke).

As rumors shift to fact, there's only one thing I can really say.

Yuji Naka is actually leaving SEGA. Discuss.

Don't give me any ideas either. *evil smile* I going to do something that I haven't done in a long time.
-Penalty Game: Visitors from space. SBW and RPG are abducted by shape shifting aliens. Just to annoy them, they turn into Black Doom and some Black Oaks (the name for the giants) as they prepare this large machine with the phrase "1000 years of pain!" written on it. The aliens then do their little "exam" with this machine which after probing, grafts a metal disk into their subjects' colons. With the press of a remote control button, the disk de-compresses, causing an 80 foot satellite to burst out of the disk via the way it entered. With another button press, the satellite compresses back into the disk. On the bright side, if the n00bs of the apocalypse attack again, we can modify the satellites to become giant death rays.
Ever know what its like to get pwned by a book? Sonic certainly does.

That's just wrong, really wrong. I thought that little South Park reference (from the 1st episode of the 1st and 7th season, where Cartman ends up with a giant sattelite as a result of an anal probe.) would get some funny responses.
