Lost Planet

To finish off my string of exclusive developer interviews with a bang, I bring you my conversation with none other than Mr. Keiji Inafune himself. He’s been at Capcom for 20 years. His very first creation at Capcom was Mega Man, or Rock Man in Japan (which means Mega Man is 20 years old this year!), and he has continued to make hit after hit. He is now higher up in the food chain at Capcom, and for Lost Planet he acted as Executive Producer.

Below is my interview with Inafune-san, conducted over lunch on the day of the Lost Planet launch event.

[Brian] Do you have any goals or New Year’s resolutions for 2007?

[Keiji Inafune] Yeah, overall for Capcom, since I’m working more on managing development overall rather than being too hands-on with any particular title, my goal for this year is basically to improve the working conditions for all our talented development staff.
