Photo Dojo Interview with Bill Trinen
« on: May 16, 2010, 02:10:34 PM »

Following the final match in which I defeated Bill Trinen, the mighty Nintendo Ninja, I had the opportunity to talk to him about Photo Dojo and what went into bringing the game that was called Photo Fighter X in Japan to North America.


Nintendo World Report (NWR): How involved were you with bringing Photo Dojo to North America?


Bill Trinen (BT): I was in one of the meetings when they first showed it to us and the moment they showed it was apparent on all of the faces of everybody from Nintendo of America in the room that we were all immediately in love with the idea of this game. There wasn't a whole lot of work to bring it to America; it was a foregone conclusion.


For the rest of the interview, go here.

I wanna ask one question before I read that interview.

Do you ever ask him anything about what NOA is developing inhouse that isn't a cheap WiiWare or DSiWare app?
anything about what the Treehouse has been upto or is it all about Photo Dojo.

It's a strictly Photo Dojo interview, hence the title of the interview.

Did you get to talk to him about anything else outside of the interview?

I liked that it was free. I hope that they do similar promotions down the road with either discounts or freebies.

Are you still in the Redmond area or are you headed back home now?

The event was focused on Photo Dojo, and Bill was at the event with enough time for me to beat him, do some interviews, and then he had to go to meetings.

I was only there for about two days, so I'm back on the east coast now.

It's a shame we can't trade fighters with other people around the world.

Next time you see Bill Trinen just keeping screaming MOTHER 3 MOTHER 3  MOTHER 3. For added effect, you have to be wielding a sword and the building has to be on fire. Thanks.
