Star Fox Adventures – 2002 Developer Interview
Added 2021-03-29 12:14:39 +0000 UTChttp://shmuplations.com/starfoxadventures/
Taken from the 11/21/2002 issue of Nintendo Dream, this lengthy interview with long-time Star Fox series steward and character designer Takaya Imamura covers his early works at Nintendo, the conception of the Star Fox series, the backstories behind many of its characters and his recent forays into external collaboration, with a particular focus on his work merging the world of Star Fox with Rare’s unrelated action-adventure game Dinosaur Planet.
Incidentally, Shigehisa Nakaue, the Nintendo Dream employee featured in this interview who worked with Imamura on the Star Fox Adventures prequel manga, would join Nintendo soon after this interview took place, and he currently works as a primary illustrator and character supervisor for the Super Mario series, succeeding the renowned Yoichi Kotabe.

Great interview! I love all the translation notes as well as relating the subject to the present like the Dinosaur Planet ROM and Nakaue's illustration role at Nintendo.
