Exhibit 99.1

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Agilysys Receives Notice from NASDAQ
Continues to Wait for Audit of Magirus Financial Statements

BOCA RATON, Fla. — August 20, 2008 — Agilysys, Inc. (NASDAQ: AGYS) today announced that on August 14, 2008, as expected, the Company received a NASDAQ Staff Determination letter pursuant to Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) stating that NASDAQ has not received the company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2008 (the “June Form 10-Q”).

This notice was issued in accordance with standard NASDAQ procedures and follows a similar notice received on July 3, 2008 that the Company did not comply with NASDAQ’s filing requirement due to the delayed filing of the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 (the “2008 Form 10-K”). The Company plans to present its plan to regain compliance with the filing requirement at an upcoming hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel.

Agilysys will file the June Form 10-Q as soon as it completes the 2008 Form 10-K. As previously announced on June 16, 2008, the delay in filing the 2008 Form 10-K is due to the pending audit of the financial statements of the Company’s investment in a foreign entity, Magirus AG, a privately held enterprise computer systems distributor headquartered in Germany in which Agilysys has a 20% ownership interest. When the audit of Agilysys’ share of Magirus’ income and losses for fiscal 2008 is complete, the Company will file with the SEC its financial statements for all applicable periods.
