Satoshi Tajiri is a video games designer, born in Japan mostly know for him famous creation Pokémon which I was addicted to watching as a kid and still am to this day! As a young child he was an insect collector (this put me of a bit and made me shiver in horror…eww!) this and the urban are he lived in has influenced his style. He spent most of his early years studying game design and learning how to use various programs, trying to master them all.
Pokémon took him six long years to complete, and after all that time it wasn’t even predicted to sell well (pisstake or what). He first had the genius idea of collecting and sharing animation when he first saw a game boy, (who remembers those? haha), his efforts paid off in the end though as he made a multibillion dollar franchise.
He has a list of prizes to his name, and has been named in the list of the top 100 creators in IGN.
