Well he still does concept, logo and promotional illustration design for them so I think he's on decent terms with them

Last thing I read of him was an interview where he said he liked the redesign of the FFIV logo

He then went on to say how much he liked drawing big dark bad guys

Character designs were done by Toshiyuki "le chibi" Itahana on IX. Although he copied Noruma's designs for his illustrations on the other games, on IX he was asked to come up with his own designs and so just got handed some text like he would for FFI - VI and come up with whatever

Early sketches of Huitzil and Felicia's stages. The giant Huitzil seems to be less put together than in the finished stage, lots of inner framework showing. Not only is the name on the neon sign in Felicia's stage different, the cat's outfit is different as well (tuxedo instead of cheongsam). If you look at the very top of the page you can see a random little sketch of a proto-Huitzil sitting.

That design isn't very endearing, but it certainly makes a lot more sense for someone who comes from the desert than a guy in shoulder plates and a unitard.

Also he looks a lot smaller, when I first heard the name "Ganondorf", I thought he would be a small version of Ganon. A Ganon dwarf if you will.

>Couldn't get FFIX when it came out because the game store we went to had a wall scroll of Erin that was at a weird lighting angle that made it look like her pussy was out.

Wow, the concept of Pokemon dates back to 1990? Had no idea.

>Hangul text, so it's a Korean product
>"Family Computer Disk System" written on the lower left when the Korean NES was the Comboy
Was this a bootleg of an official product? Or did they just release it before they started localizing FC/NES games in the region? I know Bandai used to sell a lot of their toys in the region.

Seeing these types of drawings brings back so much nostalgia. Kuja was so awesome, poison type right? and that ominious Giovanni and infiltrating his headquarters like a badass. "P-please! Take this Master Ball, just don't kill me!" Good times.

So Rocket knight is just the original Sonic and The Black Knight?

Is it just a coincidence that the Victor on the right looks a lot like Spark Mandrill or is there some sort of significance for those circular beady ornaments on the hands and shoulders?

>tfw you actually like the prototype Tales of Phantasia character designs/SNES sprites more than the final/official designs
>as far as I know, they've never even shown up in later games as DLC or whatever
Kill me.
Those names have to fucking go though. Holy shit, they're fucking awful.

I've never bothered to find out who designed those games, but... Are you fucking serious?
>look at the faces
>look at the anatomy
No... NO! THIS IS FUCKING BULLSHIT.
That guy was fucking GOD-TIER at designing outfits and characters, putting research and effort into each and every one of them, and he's wasting his talent on FUCKING IDOLMASTER
GOD
FUCKING
DAMNIT

It's a bootleg, just one that tried to look legit. For a while Korea had no copyright law regarding software, so ther was no problem.
