Yesterday brought us another substantial Nintendo leak. Game protoypes, source code, and other data began to spread online. If that wasn’t enough, we found out about a pitch for an online Pokemon PC title and were able to get an early look at some classic games, including beta sprites and early designs.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, yet another major Nintendo leak has turned up today. The latest one is all about the N64 such as the system’s operating system and lots of games.

Yoshito Sekigawa is a name that Nintendo fans may be unaware of, but he’s been with the company for almost two decades. One of Sekigawa’s earliest and most notable roles was for Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door as he was only one of two staffers credited for that game’s music. Sekigawa did some sound work for Sticker Star and Color Splash, but finally returned to the series in a major way for its latest release.

In the credits for Paper Mario: The Origami King, it’s revealed that Sekigawa was the sound director / composition lead. He was also one of the people involved with composition. Essentially, what all of this means is that Sekigawa led the way on The Origami King’s music, and he contributed tunes to a Paper Mario game for the first Paper Mario game since The Thousand-Year Door.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
