Kinda wild to think about. 38 years since Super Mario Bros came out. I don't think any western dev has a retention rate like that lol

I really like the Wonder mechanic. The levels are like fruit gushers. There's a surprise in the middle of each one

Yeah, something I noticed from learning about a number of Western devs is that they end up completely leaving the game industry after a while.

It's hard to imagine an elephant power-up in Super Mario Bros.

I could maybe see that in an Alex Kidd game though.

They were basically a bunch of college age kids back then. Now they're in their late 50s/early 60s, lol

I heard it's something like this.

An unfortunate reality in the AAA Video Games industry. Many workers (programmers, graphic designers, 3D modelers, animators, etc.) are hired to work on large projects with astronomical budgets, only to be fired once said project is complete. Many companies don't even go that far, and just fire their workers before they're legally required to provide any benefits (such as Health Insurance).

There's also Yuka Tsujiyoko. She's the composer for every track of Fire Emblem 1-6 and she's still composing for the franchise even now. Kirby's Jun Ishikawa and Hirokazu Ando from kirby's first game too.
