The Bug Boy: The Early Years of Pokemon’s Satoshi Tajiri
“When you're a kid and get your first bike, you want to go somewhere you've never been before,” says Satoshi Tajiri. “That's like Pokemon. Everybody shares the same experience, but everybody wants to take it someplace else. And you can do that.”

The Dawn of Pokemon: Tajiri Launches His Game
Tajiri was no stranger to video games. In the early 1980s, he had won a contest sponsored by Sega that involved making a video game. With his “Game Freak” colleagues, Tajiri had also created his first video game, Quinty, which was published by Namco. But in 1991, Tajiri discovered something that he thought was revolutionary: the Game Boy. When he saw two boys playing a game together, connecting their Game Boys by a link cable, Tajiri immediately began to think of the possibilities. “I saw Game Boy when it was first released,” says Tajiri. “The idea for Pokémon clicked in my mind. The basic idea for Pokemon seemed a good fit for Game Boy.”

Lesson #1: Find Inspiration in your Outside Interests
Tajiri never liked going to school. His father wanted him to study to become an electrician, but that was the farthest thing from Tajiri’s mind. Instead, Tajiri split all of his spare time between two activities: first, was roaming the forests and fields near his family’s home in his quest for insects.

Turning your do-list into a game, by making it a scorecard, shifts the paradigm. Now it becomes a game - a game which you can win or lose, a game where you don't win 'em all, a game which is both challenging and entertaining. What a difference!
Console Games...Gone in 60 Sec.
Short game. Long game. No game. Gone in 60 seconds. Expecting too much from consumers can prove to be foolish even in video games. The outcome of the Xbox, PS3, Wii challenge could lead consumers to a less than "obvious" decision. It isn't the power that wows, it's the fun that satisfies.

Positioning Power
In the game of chess, the queen is the most powerful piece in the game. She can move any number of squares horizontally, vertically, or diagonally as long as her path is unobstructed. However, at the beginning of the game, the influence of the queen is restricted because of the configuration of the pieces. Although the same rules govern the play of the queen, because of where she is positioned at the beginning of the game she is unable to move and cannot attack. Her only role is to provide limited defensive to the surrounding pieces....
Are You In The Game
Have you ever noticed that it is the people in the stands who supposedly know everything about the game? They give all kinds of advice, but you don't see them actually in the game. It is as if the game exists only for them. Many will say that yes, the game does exist for the fans, for without the fans, where would the game be?
