Hey guys! As requested, I've got two Yasumi Matsuno interviews to share today:
Yasumi Matsuno x Hideo Kojima (1999) - http://shmuplations.com/matsunoxkojima/
Yasumi Matsuno x Shigeru Miyamoto (2003) - http://shmuplations.com/matsunoxmiyamoto/
I was originally only planning to do the Kojima interview, but I thought it was a little on the short side, so I've bundled these two together for one update. Both cover the more "top-level" side of game development, but still contain a lot of fascinating insights and thoughts from Kojima, Miyamoto, and Matsuno alike. Enjoy! I'm a little late on updates this month but I am still planning to do two more interviews before August, as well as holding another round of voting in the next couple days.
