The Autistic Boy Who Created Pokemon I Satoshi Tajiri I Success Story
Did you know that Pokemon almost didn't happen? Because of financial struggles Game Freak nearly went bankrupt. So Satoshi Tajiri gave up his salary during the tough times so the process of creating this amazing game could continue.
Satoshi Tajiri, the creator of the Pokémon franchise, as a child had an incredible obsession with collecting bugs that would later inspire him to create the Pokémon game.
In his teenage years he became obsessed with another hobby. Arcade games. He loved playing games so much that he would actually skip classes. So he ended up flunking high school. His parents couldn't understand his obsession with video games and were worried that their son is wasting his life doing nothing.
Also, no one believed that Pokemon will become a success story. The game was meant to be played on a game boy, that was considered not a popular device at the time.
But!
Not only did Pokemon become a hit, it became a cultural phenomenon. You can look at the franchise from just about any angle and see incredible success.
