Famitsu posted their developer aspirations feature, with 141 devs & assorted industry figures sharing their goals for 2023 famitsu.com/news/202212/27…🇯🇵 dog tired atm but I'll share any that catch my fancy
ArcSys' Daisuke Ishiwatari's aspiration for 2023: he notes how he's subscribed to multiple video services but just browsing them for things to "consume" feels like work, & even though the average quality of content has risen sharply, it's hard to get excited, and in wondering...
...why that might be, he wonders if having so much easily-accessible quality media might be diminishing the value one places on things, so his aspiration for 2023 is to go back to basics and try to create things that people will feel are important to them

as 2022 winds down, I feel like taking a look back at everything published on @shmuplations over the last year—I'm sure there are plenty of translations that people might've missed for whatever reason, so maybe you'll discover something new: (thread)
first off, a big site redesign went live at the beginning of the year—the original design was not only showing its age but becoming unwieldy on the backend, so it was a long time coming

blackoak went over the big changes in this thread

kicking off 2022's interview content was this 2007 interview with programmer Masayuki Yamamoto on his contributions to Nihon Telenet and their influential anime-esque action/RPG series, Valis shmuplations.com/valis/

it also includes a story about a clever dev workaround…

denfami interviewed Masahiro Sakurai on his jump to youtube: why he did it, how he does it & the secrets nobody's yet picked up on news.denfaminicogamer.jp/interview/2212…🇯🇵
one of the big things he emphasises early on is how extremely specific his channel is—it's helmed by a high-profile, multi-genre director with the freedom to talk about past work, who's also familiar with many other games, good at visual presentation, has a track record of...
…regular, consistent content production (via his Famitsu column), is willing to eat the cost of regular video production without worrying about profits, /and/ he knows the mission & can do what can be quite lonely work without getting caught up in second-guessing or self-doubt

Sega's classic hardware producer Yosuke Okunari spoke to Famitsu about the Mega Drive Mini 2 famitsu.com/news/202206/03…🇯🇵
on the reception to the OG MD Mini: when Nintendo announced the FC Mini in 2016, Okunari put together a proposal for a MD Mini the very next day; during the pitching process, Nintendo also put out the SFC Mini

bc the MD Mini was designed under the shadow of Nintendo's minis (>)
...they designed it from the perspective of being a latecomer & thinking hard about how they could clear the bar set by Nintendo, which meant going above & beyond

the SFC Mini had 21 games, so they had have 42—they had Starfox 2, so he wanted to add two big bonus games, etc
