I'm not 100% sure this is the right board for this, or if there's already a Konami Will Sue thread, but I do know that it's necessary for a Bemani site. Please redirect the thread and/or myself if there is a prior thread or if this is the wrong forum for this.

For starters, Konami will sue this area code

I have some friends that live there. E15.gif

I started a 9-digit number with 573 and one of them asked "How did you get my phone number?!" so I looked up the area code and found that it was in their area.

573 = Konami

I forget why; have someone more knowledgeable and less sleep deprived explain it.

I have a feeling (not a very good one) that Konami's gonna sue PIU (Sorry I can't spell the company). Just because it has Up, Down, Right, Left arrows, there just turned a little bit.

Close. While 5 and 7 are Go and Nana (shortened to na usually when counting fast), the kanji for 3 just looks similar to the hiragana (I think...may be katakana) for "Mi", and that is where you get the 573 thing...Yay Gonanami!

Sup DT.

In terms of what resembles what, it is the katakana. Three slashes straight across versus three slashes arched from top-left to bottom-right. み 三 ミ if you happen to be able to read that (hiragana, kanji, then katakana). Also, the counter for 3 generic objects is "mittsu." ("三つ") That, I believe, has more credence than just the kanji looking similar to the katakana. But, I forget the reasons everyone's said before.

Go and Ko in hiragana/katakana are written similarly: ご(go) こ(ko) OR ゴ(go) コ(ko) respectively.

Japanese are known to attach or remove those two small dashes ("ten-ten") when they make compound words from multiple kanji and other situations. From what I've noticed, a lot of companies here don't make a word that exists in dictionary vocab but has a general meaning anyway.

I'm sure I've forgotten a thing or two. This has also been discussed a bajiggety-jillion times on this forum but it doesn't hurt to say it again.
