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.
