Title: Motion Footage of the late Gunpei Yokoi
Post by: Grooveraider on September 22, 2008, 07:56:53 AM
October 4th will be the anniversary of the late Gunpei Yokoi tragic death. I was blessed to have met this brilliant man during the unveiling of Virtual Boy at the Electronic Entertainment Expo ( E3 1995 ). Many of you have never seen Mr. Yokoi but still photos. Well, I recently recovered the footage of me meeting Mr. Yokoi, 13 years ago and I thought i'd share the experience to all the Nintendo and gaming fans. To celebrate Mr. Yokoi's contributions to the gaming industry - I put together a short tribute to the man practically responsible for ressurrecting the gaming industry.
I've uploaded the Yokoi footage in two locations:
