Description

Japansoft: An Oral History is a beautifully designed history of the early Japanese videogame industry, told by those who were there. This innovative book offers intimate insight into the games, companies and human experiences that forged a new culture.

Comprising interviews with lesser documented developers from prominent game companies, Japansoft: An Oral History provides fresh perspectives on defining games of their time. The book is a re-edited digest of John Szczepaniak's three-volume series, The Untold History of Japanese Game Developers, and includes new interviews with key figures.

Enhanced by anecdotal illustrations, rare press adverts and an illustrated guide to the early game industry, Japansoft: An Oral History offers a unique reading experience through interlinked interviews that can be read in any order. A must-have for anyone interested in the history of Japanese videogames.
