Check this link for an interview with good ol' retired Nintendo boss Hiroshi Yamauchi.

I can't quite decide if it's fake or not. He's retired now so can say pretty much all he wants, but is that an excuse to keep talking about, or referring to his genitalia!?!
:)
Bit of a shame though.

My Dr. Sloan like skills WASTED.
Yet I highly doubt a boy of 16 would even have been able to comprehend the technology/strength etc of the atomic bomb in such early years of it's creation/development, especially when that was the first time it was used on a world wide scale/for war purposes for all to see.

You're saying that the father of Nintendo was a chav at 16? :D
No, at 16 I'd have been more thoughtful about it all than that.
Actually no I'd have been more like: "Holy crap let's get inside because of the radiation."
A boy of 16 wouldn't have known what the hell it was, nor it's power, nor its devastation.
It wouldn't have been until some time after that he'd have known what it was about, so the context the article claimed that he said "I saw the flash of the atomic bomb, and thought 'never again'" doesn't fit.
YER
