New interview: Pokemon Platinum
🕑 Added 2020-11-23 16:49:39 +0000 UTCIn this newly-transcribed 2009 interview, Junichi Masuda and (Platinum's director) Takeshi Kawachimaru discuss Gen 4's development, and in the process talk about earlier games as well. There's some interesting bits peppered all throughout -- like the series' musical inspirations and the Distortion World -- but the standout quotes actually come when Masuda starts talking about how he caters games to new fans... and the established fanbase is a lower priority =/ Worth noting that he retired from directing Pokemon games in late 2018, right before the Let's Go games released.
Just finished writing the commentary. I'll tweet out the link next week, but for for now, this link's just for you guys: http://lavacutcontent.com/masuda-interview-pokemon-platinum/
