[game_preservation] Two books on Gumpei Yokoi [Japanese]

[Devin Monnens]

There are two books out in Japan now on Gumpei Yokoi.

The first is the legendary "Gumpei Yokoi's House of Games Returns", a
reprint of the super-rare original. The second is "The Father of Games:
Gumpei Yokoi, the Man Who Created the DNA of Nintendo".

Both are in Japanese. I don't know of any attempts by the publisher to get
these translated into English, though I certainly hope someone is up to it!

I'm not really sure who you would contact to get started on such a project.
I just know they are 225 pages long each, so it's not like this would be a
cakewalk! Maybe one of those guys like Chris Kohler is on it...
