Hudson Labs in Sapporo
« on: August 26, 2013, 04:36:21 AM »
Noticed this link on a page - supposedly this is the former Hudson Soft Labs in Sapporo; looks like a real estate listing.

Thought it was interesting - can anybody confirm if that's really the old HQ?

yep that looks like it is the old Hudson Labs building from some old footage I vaguely remember watching.
Had a small train and track in it or something, again a vague memory.

It indeed was the R&D building.

You can also see the train rail going in and out the building..lol.

What a shame, all this place is gone now :(

Also wonders what happened to all the stuff inthere? Everything moved to 573 warehouses?

Somewhere, in the dusty, dirty nook of a forgotten bathroom, lies a crumpled napkin with the release dates for all TurboGrafx-16/TurboDuo titles. What is it doing there? Who compiled the info? For what purpose?

As Fate would have it, these questions will never be answered.

Someone needs to buy it and turn it into a museum before it become a porn megastore. Load those server racks with streaming hentai and shit like that. #-o

it's so sad to see that huge legacy going down to the last stone :(

even they did barely made any great stuff anymore after the pce went down, it's sad nonetheless.

If I could, I would buy it and put a PCE museum there.  (Along with living quarters)
