Here\'s something I just wrote.  It\'s a quick bio on Yamauchi.  You might even learn something!

You forgot to mention some of his dumber buisness moves or the ignorant comments he has been making as of lately (towards Square,etc).

Still, overall, it was a good read. You done a good job, so ignore my above comments. I am just annoyed by him slightly (even tho I detest Square).

The only thing I learned is that his son is going to take over.  Other than that, it didn\'t say much except for he wanted to rule the world (and really, who doesn\'t want to rule the world :)).

BTW, the pronunciation guides are horrible.  They don\'t sound anything like how the names are really said.

Hehe, it\'s a joke on the Japanese names.  I translated Peter Main as PEET-row ack-WOW-chee...

I forgot to include stuff about Square... that sucks, I meant to do that... Oh well!

Glad you guys liked it.

LOL.  I thought it was a little too messed up to be serious. :)
