Satoshi Tajiri
"Cho Ren Sha 68K" designer Koichi "Famibe No Yosshin" Yoshida used "Family BASIC" to create two shoot 'em up games titled "Zacner" and "Zacner II". Satoshi Tajiri, creator of "Pokémon", initially used "Family BASIC" as a gateway to build his understanding of the internal operation of the Famicom. This inspired him to create his own handmade Famicom game development hardware, and make Game Freak's debut game "Quinty", later released as "Mendel Palace" (1990).
