This is the first post on this blog. Apologies for the mess and lack of content right now.</p> <p>I have a bunch of information stored in my closet, in storage, in Airtable, and in my head about Japanese video games. I&rsquo;m slowly converting into content for this site. Expect sporadic updates for a bit while I get things sorted and build the pipeline for future content.</p>https://japanesegamehistory.com/post/prge-2015/Sat, 17 Oct 2015 00:00:00 +0000https://japanesegamehistory.com/post/prge-2015/<p>I was feeling lost.</p> <p>After almost nine years working at Disney, I left the company and accepted a new role in the UK.</p> <p>Assuming it would all be great, my better half moved back to the UK in preparation for our new life there together. We got rid of all our furniture. I started my own company so I could invoice the UK company for my work.</p> <p>Unfortunately, the opportunity didn&rsquo;t work out well. Which meant I was separated from my better half by an ocean. Now I had to figure out what I was going to do next, what I started a company for, and how I was going to make money to feed my family.</p>https://japanesegamehistory.com/about/Fri, 11 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000https://japanesegamehistory.com/about/<h1 id="about">About </h1><p>Hi there!

Some of these resources date back decades, and I&rsquo;m grateful to those who have made them available.</p>https://japanesegamehistory.com/search/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://japanesegamehistory.com/search/
