PEOPLE: - Satomi Asakawa, age 48. Character designer for Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask, Spirit Tracks, & Skyward Sword. Character Design Lead for Twilight Princess. - Rodney Alan Greenblat, age 58. American artist, graphic designer, and children’s book author. QUOTE: Asakawa: To be honest, I first bought Nintendo games and started playing them after I turned 20 years old, around the time of the Super Nintendo. The first time I really got into a Nintendo game was Rare’s Donkey Kong Country and later Banjo-Kazooie. I was really attracted to Western-style character design. I was also really influenced by Rodney Alan Greenblat’s work. Even before his most famous game PaRappa the Rapper came out, I was a big fan of his earlier computer game, Rodney’s Wonder Window.
