I can see your point, and tbh, I can’t see that releasing them separately would have much, if any affect on the Yakuza games, but I’m sure there’s a reason they haven’t.
Just not sure what it could be😅

Hehe
I’ve had a soft spot for this game since I played it way back when, so had to go.
Not often you get to meet someone like JAM’s president either

With the care and attention given to the RGG ports (M2, I think?), I would hesitate to call them 'crammed in' except in terms of 'they did a fine job cramming all that into that game'.

I know what you mean though; would love to see individual releases for ease of access.

There’s a Japanese site which organizes bigger companies’ staff into their individual development teams/departments which I often find useful

That makes sense as Nintendo didn’t really envisage other companies releasing games on the platform at first.

HEY, do you love RULE OF ROSE?

Our own boss onion Kimura-san is making an appearance in this new horror game documentary to talk all things RULE OF ROSE!

I believe he was due to deliver the eulogy at a ceremony in celebration of Kato’s life.
From what I heard, it was as touching as you’d imagine a skilled story teller who knew Kato-san could make it.

Another little bit of behind the scenes work and some interpreting 🥷
And what a line up!
If you’re into horror games, this has to be on your watch list 🔪

2016! Thought I recalled posting it. I actually found the catalog/flyer just after learning about the game myself. Quite the coincidence.

Is that something I posted a few years ago..? I recall it appearing in a Koei catalog included with a game

Wow! There’s an early Pack in Video game that credits the programmer too.
And one of the Sim games on SFC credits Will Wright…
But spelt his name wrong (ironic😅

Yup, which is why you had some innovative developers creating and selling their own developer systems for CDs which didn’t rely on expensive disc-based systems.

No shade on Sega, but I think Hudson had some extremely talented engineers who understood h/w and had game dev experience, so when they specced the PCE it was game dev friendly (numerous friends have confirmed coming off FC dev onto PCE was very smooth). So 8bit or not, it packed a punch

Interviews rarely pull in the kind of views they deserve, so I'm really grateful to see so many people in the comments singing praise for this one with @omega6.bsky.social! 😊

Thank you so much to everyone who's checked it out already! www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_ys...

I also have an acute understanding of how little talent I have, so working with people who have plenty is always a pleasure🙇

Yup, I had the very great pleasure to work with them behind the scenes and they know their stuff.
