JeepRubi Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 QUOTE After Midway was sold for a paltry $100,000, some investors were able to demand reimbursement due to the change in leadership. They initially had until mid-January to decide if they wanted to collect, but the deadline was postponed until February 19.In all, Midway faces $240 million in debt, though only $150 million of that could be due by February 19. The company originally had until 2025 and 2026 to pay the money back.The company plans to reorganize but "conduct its business operations as usual," with CEO Matt Booty noting that "Midway enters this process with strong underlying fundamentals, as evidenced by solid fourth quarter sales that exceeded expectations in spite of a challenging retail and general economic environment."[/b] http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/57213 Quote

Guest Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 I believe it's just Chapter 11 bankruptcy...business as usual. They just need to restructure without having creditors hounding them. Quote

R315r4z0r Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 I've only played it once, many years ago, on my friend's Sega. I didn't like it. Quote
Jamrd Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I have 7 Mega Drives (or Genesis), 1 Mega Drive II and 2 Master Systems (1 is the Mega Drive converter). I own both MK1 and MK2, but also MK - Triology on the playstation (yep, the original disc, almost spanking new). The majority of the systems I own like the Mega Drives were from car boots, bundled with the games so I "accumulated" the systems aswell lol! The game is classic especially the first when you enter the blood code, A,B,A,C,A,B,B ... beautiful :-D Quote
