Every page of the Supernova 2 (AC) Thread has a "i hate beston or f konami" person. I so agree so this thread will describe this community's hatred of the evil corporation.
I HATE THEM TO THE POINT WHERE I WOULD IMPORT A JAPANEESE GAME AND TELL THEM THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT RIGHT?

I don't hate Konami at all. They provide great games and the artists they employ for their music games are wonderful. I love pretty much every BEMANI game, and without Konami there would be no Bemani. They are not evil, they just do what they can do make the most profit. WELCOME TO BUSINESS 101.
I don't really hate Betson either. I just think they are really really clueless, and that Konami should probably just find another distributor because Betson just really isn't doing it for them.

Personally, I think Betson is a group of inept businesspeople who do not seem to understand the US arcade market at all, unlike other companies (e.g. Namco). I think Konami should reopen their arcade division (albeit on a smaller scale) or, like piepiepie75 said, find another distributor.

But ITG2 allowed us to have all our favorite DDR songs anyway on USB or a hack, plus more.
I can't help but dislike Konami a little for that, even though it was by a totally legal process they sued RoXoR.
Everyone hates Betson.

Everyone hates Betson.

This sums it up for me pretty much too.

I think that some people still don't realize that Konami wanted to give America the full SN2 experience, Betson just didn't go throughh with it.

Why would I hate Konami? They made this awesome game that we all enjoy. 
I do agree that it's a little annoying how Konami keeps the US a little behind, but they way SN2 AC and CS, we're really not missing anything.

As a European, we don't have to suffer at the hands of Betson...I think. So I can't comment on them. However, I'm pretty annoyed with Konami of Europe, considering the friggin' huge delays to Hottest Party, SN1/2 and Uni 1/2(when it comes out), for what is pretty much exactly the same game, just with a different name, and a few different songs. Yeah, I know about localisation, but that's not something that'd take 6 months to do!

i agree though im not in europe, but there should be so much of a delay for a game that is pretty much the same! is there any revealed reason for this?
