Takayuki Nakamura

From Sega Retro

Notes on worklist link I posted

1. On the list were a few games I couldn't find:

  • "Basketball" (SMS) (1990)
  • "Where’s Wally?" (aka "Where's Waldo?") (ARC) (1991)
  • "Ghost Hunters" (TP [Don't know what this means]) (1993)

2. He lists "some composition" for Moonwalker (MD), so I'm assuming he did Mr. Big and the Boss themes, as they reappear in the Master System version he did in full. This also makes it look like Hiroshi Kubota only ported MJ's song like he did Nakamura's for Sonic 1 & 2.

3. Stadium Cross is listed as a sound program role, so the composer is still out there. Apparently, "Checker Point" must have been composed for OutRunners and snuck into SC and not the other way around (despite release dates), which I suppose makes more sense.

4. That list doesn't mention the Pro Evolution Soccer series, so that might not stick around much longer.
