If the name Toshiyuki Takahashi means absolutely nothing to you, don't worry, it's completely normal! The latter is indeed totally unknown in our regions. Totally? Not quite, since many of you must have controlled it on NES, SNES, Game Boy or even PC Engine in the 1980s/90s. In what game? Well in the famous series of Adventure Island platformers ! Indeed, this little chubby character is actually inspired by a Japanese man, very flesh and bone! In the Land of the Rising Sun, moreover, the Hudson Soft employee has enjoyed true star status for more than 20 years! Even today, he is for many the living God of the “Famicom generation”. Toshiyuki Takahashi, better known by the nickname of Takahashi Meijin (Meijin meaning "Game Master") has kindly agreed to indulge in Pix'n Love and look back on his incredible past as a video game hero! Singer, actor, TV presenter, manga fiction hero, you will see that the Hudson Soft employee occupies a very unique place in Japanese video game history...


History buffs will also delight in astonishing background files, devoted both to the pioneers of video games and to the totally unknown market of Russia, where the video game industry has largely developed on the basis of cloning.
