Koji Kondo turns the big 5-0
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Random | 3 Comments
Wouldn’t the world have been a sadder place had Koji Kondo decided to take on a profession other than composing video game music? We would have missed out some absolutely fantastic tunes, such as the main themes in Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda. The legendary composer turned 50 today and has been with Nintendo for more than half of his life. Let’s hope he sticks around with the company for many more years to come!
Thanks to Robert for the tip!

“Typhoon 4. It looks like it won’t have an effect on the weekend. Thank goodness! However, my health is bad. Prior to TGS, we’ll have a big announcement (?) on Saturday or Sunday, so I must recover,” – Hideo Kojima’s twitter
If there’s one person whose games are always awesome, it’s Hideo Kojima, and by that watch, any announcement from him is more than welcome. I’m curious though: Will this be a new game, or something else? I guess we’ll find out this weekend!
