Michael Jackson

From Sega Retro

To do

Post-accusation actions

  • Shuji Utsumi mentioning hesitancy on SoJ's side to engage in future projects.
  • One of the Sonic 3xMJ interviewees stating there was also some hesitancy for future projects on the SoA side (in the context of "but there was never any official action/statement taken, and it just resulted in a cooling period of relations")
  • SoJ possibly having to shelve a future Jackson arcade title. Both Shuji Utsumi and another Western source (I believe a Sonic 3xMJ interviewee) both confirming the "cancelled future plans/arcade games" thing. I believe the Western source may have gotten it from Utsumi/SoJ, or was just generalizing. Basically, both sides of the Atlantic were looking forward to further collaborations with Jackson before the allegations, but SoJ appears to have been the only one with anything in the pipeline.
  • Managers of Sega theme park venues/ were given the choice of removing the AS-1 ride Michael Jackson in Scramble Training from their establishments if they felt inclined (did this apply to Moonwalker machines too?)
