Yoshiki Okamoto
Funamizu was employed by Capcom in 1985. Prior to that, he wrote for "Beep" as a part-time contributor until he was invited into the company by senior staff. When he joined Capcom, he befriended fellow Capcom designer Yoshiki Okamoto while playing a game of catchball. During the late 1980s and up until the mid-1990s, Funamizu designed and co-designed several of the company's arcade games, including games in the "Street Fighter" series (particularly "Super Street Fighter II" and the "Street Fighter Alpha" series).
