Done the first page and a bit of the Wind Waker stuff. Are you sure there's no bigger versions of the images? I can get the names and titles done for the most part (though may be slow), but any kanji in the titles are too smudged to read in the smaller images so some of the stuff will be lost.

what a pity,would love to have this info

Re: Game & Wario

It does mention some of that stuff, like which island the map designers did and so on, but it's a little bit too low res to read properly and a lot of the characters are indecipherable.

Re: Game & Wario

Does it mention any of those developers past works? Those are sometimes hidden way to uncover credits to games without any?

Re: Game & Wario

Thu, 11 Apr 2013 16:17:02 +0000

So it just the credits ? i thought it tell things like which dungeons each of the designers planned,or which characters each designer modelled.

Re: Game & Wario

Thu, 11 Apr 2013 14:16:16 +0000

The credits for Wind Waker? Would you like them done?

Re: Game & Wario

Thu, 11 Apr 2013 06:09:58 +0000

This looks relevant,it tells what part of the game each guy worked ?

Just read the credits, good work. By the way, the game is co-copyrighted with Intelligent Systems in the credits. Also, the Iwata Asks lists which games the Mini-Game directors worked on, if you wanted to include that. Any idea on the 'unknown' people?

If i do recall.. a bunch of the old R&D1 guys.. Takehiro Izushi and Masao Yamamoto (Makoto Kano too?) Are in the "New Business Promotion". It pretty much is like an early retirement position where the old guys "help out" here and there, since they are out of touch with current game development.

It's a little weird, he doesn't speak until the 4th page of the interview and then has trouble describing what his job actually is at first, until Iwata clarifies. I guess it could be him.

Re: Game & Wario

I thought it was Kenji Nishizawa.. but im not sure.

See there was a programmer working for Nintendo called Kenji Nishizawa. He actually developed the password system for Kid Icarus and Metroid and I think worked on Donkey Kong Jr. Arcade with Masao Yamamoto..

This has to be him….

Name is Kenji Nishizawa, New Business Promotion Office. They worked on coordinating with the outside businesses (schools, museums) on DS Guide and DS Classroom.

By the way. How good are you with Kanji names. I could use help.

Nizhisawa's first name and role…

Re: Game & Wario

I was reading the Iwatas Asks just now! I have seen the Deputy General Manager before.. and I've also seen regular General Manager. Still working on figuring that one.

I'm actually making a profile for Eisaku Nakae. I've been waiting for a picture of him. Prolific SPD programmer.

Re: Game & Wario

Thu, 11 Apr 2013 01:43:35 +0000

Ah, I see. Well, I'll see if there's anything I can do.

There's a couple of notes from Tomodachi Collection's Iwata Asks.

Producer: Yoshio Sakamoto
Director: Ryutaro Takahashi (same as first game, also worked as director on the 3DS's main menu in the interim)
Eisaku Nakae, who was Program Director on the first game, worked as a planner and Programmer Coordinator on this on. Says his role was very different.
Art Director: Mai Okamoto (same)

*Mention the amount of designers on this game increased a lot relative to the first one.
*Okamoto calls Shinya Takahashi 'Deputy General Manager of SDP (and the note about him call him that too), but your page on SDP refers to him as General Manager.

Sticker Star is on the forums somewhere already!

Re: Game & Wario

I can do Sticker Star, but I won't get to it to next week. Any others you're looking for?

Re: Game & Wario

Awesome. I'll work on the company tags soon. Feel free to continue adding credits!

Here is the transcript. The credits are presented as a menu, with each person getting a name card, self-made drawing of a nose, and a few of their traits (gender, glasses, left-handedness etc). Some people are credited for multiple roles on their cards. These roles were their secondary roles on the project, so I have italicized and underlined the secondary roles to make it clear as I'm not sure how you handle that sort of thing.

Absolutely please! I've been looking for them.

Game & Wario

Hello, I love this site and have been reading it for a while, but decided to join. Was just wondering if I could help out (?) by providing the Game and Wario credits. I only just unlocked them in the game, they're one of the items you can collect with medals.
