    The Taito sales team, as it was back then, hovers in the background of Nishikado’s recollections like a ghost: it clearly exerted great influence on what the company would allow the creatives to make.

    Marketing people are bunch of idiots. They stop real creativity and replace it with copies of what succeed somewhere else.
