The bulk update request #6987 is active.

Reason: This is an extension of my previous 2019 alias (topic #4914) to tie up a bunch of loose ends and fix the obvious mistake that the original alias created.

Part 2:

imply grey_(bombergirl) -> bombergirl
imply aqua_bomber -> bomberman
imply flame_bomber -> bomberman_jetters
imply grand_bomber -> bomberman_jetters
imply thunder_bomber -> bomberman
imply mighty_(bomberman_jetters) -> bomberman_jetters
imply kazemaru_(bomberman) -> bomberman_b-daman_bakugaiden
imply emera_(bombergirl) -> bombergirl
imply kuro_(bombergirl) -> bombergirl
imply charabom -> bomberman
imply dorako -> bomberman
imply gyarooi -> bomberman
imply marooi -> bomberman
imply warooi -> bomberman
imply magicarooi -> bomberman
imply nagurooi -> bomberman
imply kerooi -> bomberman

Part 3:

unimply bomberman -> konami

Part 4:

imply bomberman -> hudson_soft

This covers most of the Bomberman-related tags on the site. This also extends to Bomberman's obscure connection to B-Daman and implies Hudson Soft as a whole to konami because of the 2012 merger of the two companies .

isn't Bomberman just Konami at this point? I'm pretty sure that Hudson Soft is now entirely dead.

The bulk update request #6989 has been rejected.

remove implication bomberman (412) -> konami (5579)
create implication bomberman (412) -> hudson_soft (219)

Reason: Part 3 and 4

EDIT: The bulk update request #6989 (forum #394463) has been rejected by @SNPtheCat.

the most recent Bomberman titles have no Hudson Soft branding and only contain Konami branding. Hudson shut down in 2012 and has been totally defunct as a brand since ~2014.

we don't imply puyo_puyo to compile, we don't imply crash_bandicoot to naughty_dog. bomberman should not imply hudson_soft.

Hi. I appreciate your willingness to help, but please allow me to handle my own BURs. Thank you.

Sorry, force of habit.

The bulk update request #7435 is pending approval.

create implication bomberman_jetters (128) -> hudson_soft (219)
create implication bomberman_b-daman_bakugaiden (2) -> hudson_soft (219)
create implication bomberman_64 (12) -> hudson_soft (219)
create implication bomberman_act:zero (1) -> hudson_soft (219)
create implication bomberman_hero (33) -> hudson_soft (219)
create implication bomberman_hero (33) -> bomberman (412)
create implication bomberman_land (3) -> hudson_soft (219)

Reason: This BUR is intended to replace BUR #6989. I still do not believe "legacy" copyright tags like Hudson's should be retired; Konami's lack of action with ex-Hudson franchises in particular, strengthens my belief that it should be kept for historical reasons.

As a compromise, this BUR should imply every aspect of the franchise with a presence on e6 that was made before Hudson merged with Konami to the tag hudson_soft. This correctly leaves super_bomberman_r and bombergirl without implications to hudson_soft.
