GIN writes: "I have been completely infatuated with Muramasa: The Demon Blade ever since I saw it in motion on Nintendo's Hype Channel. Sure, I saw the screenshots online and in magazines, but a sense of awe overpowered me when I laid eyes on it. I was breathless. If the game played half as well as it looked, I knew I was going to be a happy camper. Months after it came out, I finally got my hands on Muramasa: The Demon Blade."
Nintenderos: "We kick off our interviews this year with a very special one with George Kamitani, president of Vanillaware. In case you didn't know this study, it is the one behind games of the stature of Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Odin Sphere or Dragon's Crown. In addition to, of course, unforgettable titles like the wonderful 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim published by Atlus a few months ago."

How do you introduce people to folklore and fairy tales? Introducing people to mythology can be easy when they are young or in school, as such stories can sometimes be used to teach morals, introduce concepts that might be difficult for people to otherwise understand, act as warnings and get imaginations working. Once folks get older, it can be more difficult to get them engaged and interested in legends. Fortunately, some Japanese video games can step in to bridge the gap.
