Not true, they still own it, but they cancelled some obsolete trademarks due to not being able to transfer ownership from Sierra:

thread_title:  A bit ineutral... 

message: I thought I'd just make a post about it in here about it...
Someone has removed all the information pertaining to the Japanese version of Crash Bandicoot games, and I seriously do not want to go through every single article to revert these changes. I refixed the entry in Crash 3, but this is because I was able to backtrack the information.
There has always been a reason that the information was provided, and now it has been suddenly removed without reason. I was fighting over a change made to the Crash Bandicoot 3 entry, as the person kept on removing the japanese title given for the series. Now it seems after I had made the statement in the talkback entry as to why I kept reverting his change, the person has went through almost every single entry, removing every trace of the Japanese information in regards to Crash Bandicoot. This bothers me, not because simply the fact the information probably shouldn't be included, given this is an english wiki, but the informaiton has been provided as a whole for a long time. The information that has been affected were mainly the voice cast and title listings.
I don't really support this change, as he did not even give a single arguement for the changes made to the wiki Articals. Another reason I do not support the change is that while the game is indeed american made, the Crash Bandicoot games have always been popular in the Asian territory (which use the Japanese localization). And if anyone wished to look up information inregards to the Japanese version, wikipedia was an easy source to look for this information. If anyone could restore the information that was provided in the past, this would be great. 71.72.38.203 (talk) 00:06, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

There's no doubt that the next Crash game won't have Bandicoot because it will be made by Sierra, but I still think it should be changed. Sabertooth1000000000 (talk) 02:02, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Activision being the current publishers 

message: OK, since people clearly can't seem to understand why this is a bad idea, let me spell it out for you guys. There's multiple reasons why trying to have a character table just doesn't work.
*The obvious problem, it's too big. Can't you guys see that to view it properly, you have to scroll the entire page sideways? That kinda defeats the entire purpose of even having it in the first place.
*The other major problem I have is that this is completely unnecessary. Think about it...is there a table like this for Mario? No, of course not. Sonic doesn't have one either. Neither do the likes of MegaMan or heck, even Spyro doesn't have one of these. So there is no reason why Crash should be a special exception. The only way these tables can really work is with fighting game franchises, and as surprised that I am that there hasn't been a fighting game amongst it, the Crash Bandicoot series is not that genre.
*Finally, this is a nitpick, but there is no such character as "Emperor Velo XXIVV".
So, please, this table is pointless, now can we please stop adding it? It's too long and is inconsistent with other articles. 85.210.179.198 (talk) 06:05, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
