Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview: #1 I was hooked on a calculator made by Hewlett-Packard when I was in high school. I created a game and sent it to the Hewlett-Packard distributor in Japan. They were absolutely baffled. They must have been like, Whoa, what’s this high school whiz kid doing up in Sapporo.

#2 I made some important connections at the Seibu computer store, which led me to meet the programmer who would be the strongest motivator for my future work. I spent all my savings and the money I was given when I entered college on a computer, and I took on a loan.

#3 I was able to move up into a full-time position as soon as I graduated university. I enjoyed what I was doing so much that it didn’t feel like work. The games that I developed involved big software ideas, and since they were praised for their technical abilities, they were able to get work consistently.

#4 When I was president of HAL Laboratory, I had to figure out how to turn things around. I interviewed everyone at the company to find out their strengths and weaknesses, and I was blown away by how much I was learning.
