Just discovered this site. It looks to be full of great content, specifically translated interviews of Japanese developers from the 80s and 90s. I'll definitely be checking this out in more detail later on. Hopefully it's as awesome as it seems.

I was pleased to discover they've got a Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/shmuplations

For me shmuplations has two missions, both equally important: (1) educating people about game history and game design through these primary sources, and (2) helping players enjoy the games more deeply and intimately. I started doing these translations because I loved noticing all the design details I'd missed in a favorite game, and I wanted to share that feeling of deepened appreciation with others.

Consequently, I don't take an overly academic approach to this material. I leave that to people working in bona fide game history studies, for whom I hope these interviews are a helpful resource!

I'm supporting this.
