I don't think it was ever proven, I remember all the fansites in a rage about it though. The "classified" stuff Tom was pumpimg out on TFH2 around the same time (like the Habbo Dreams emulator & stuff) so I never saw any reason to doubt him. I don't think we ever traced the art back to anything else...

Either way, if it was real they decided well against it after everyone went crazy over it.

True. It could be fake I guess but the art is 'habbo'ised too (Habburgers etc)

Honestly, I think it has about 4 years left (of sulake owning it).
If it does close. Who gives a fuck? We all got our retros.
Someone can buy the habbo domain. Use a retro emulator. Boom, welcome back habbo.

Habbo Netherlands = Dead
Habbo Netherlands was big very big with a lot of people, but now it is over with max 2000 online users.
We got here a retro http://sunnieday.nl and this hotel is in a few weeks bigger than habbo.nl Something wrong xD (Now an error on the server, Sorry Sunnieday r63 cms fail xD)

Vincent Beerends , country manager for Habbo Netherlands has said: The Dutch website and community for Dutch players will simply remain available, but all the work of the Dutch team will by the Finnish headquarters taken over." The former joint venture between TMG and the Finnish parent company Sulake has also came to an end.

Sulake, which was recently acquired by the Finnish telecom operator Elisa, put on a great centralization by the various Habbo offices abroad.

"The strategy of the foreign Sulake Habbo offices to close last year has already deployed," explains Beerends. "The Dutch office was the last local office that was still running. The intention is that all work for Habbo will come from the finnish office.

About the role that TMG has played in this step can Beerends not lose too much: "TMG has always been a minority interest in the joint venture with Sulake. It is not difficult to imagine that Sulake has the final say in such a decision. "

TMG itself declined to comment on the sale of the shares. Spokesman Hans Elekan "TMG had a minority interest and in that context, it is not subject to TMG to the outside world." (Text source Habbox)
