  • Capcom Under Investigation for Fraud

    Osaka based Capcom is currently under criminal investigated by the city’s Tax Bureau for fraud. The company failed to report approximately 5.12 billion yen (US $44 million) over six years. The penalty is a stiff 1.2 billion yen (US $10 million).

    Serious stuff, indeed. Wish we could say the company was focusing on the new Biohazard or Mega Man, but that would as true as Capcom’s last tax report. They were focusing on money. How to get it, hide it and keep it. That’s business no doubt, but failing to report millions to the government is downright dirty.

    I really don't have that much to comment on for this. Its surprising to me that Capcom of all companies is being investigated, I would have figured SNK or something before them.

    Sheesh. Let's hope this doesn't affect BH5, Dead Rising and Lost Planet's development.

    Cue buyout?

                I believe I pwned you.

                And 10 million isn't a lot for that kind of thing. Here in the states when tax fraud like that happens, it happens on a catastrophic scale where billions dollars are lost.

                    thats a odd videocard for a decent processor to be with, i mean i had a 400mx in a athlon 750 5 years ago...
                    if it was a custom build budget why couldnt you go cheaper on the processor and buy a better vid card. A say p4 1800 with a ti4600 or the like coulda been the same price...
