It was a space-bound Italian plumber that finally provided Yokota's first major break (though a large ape afforded a good prelude), but with it came a huge responsibility to live up to over two decades worth of some of the most iconic and best-loved game music of all time. Many of Yokota's early jobs involved sound direction and editing, but music is clearly his passion. This April marks his five year anniversary with Nintendo where he has contributed to projects like Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess from the company's Tokyo branch. He studied at the Tokyo College of Music in the 1990s and went on to work for Japanese publisher Koei on titles like Kessen and Crimson Sea before coming to work at Nintendo.
