We go over the career of Gumpei Yokoi. From his falling into a job at Nintendo until his untimely death. We cover his contributions to Nintendo, and the game industry, and set the record straight on what he did, and did not have influence on. In the end his true legacy is the talent he mentored, philosophy, and vision that still influences Nintendo to this day.
