) is an entrepreneur and owner of Bullet-Proof Software living with his wife Akemi and daughter Maya in Japan. He is on the search to find a video game that could blow up the market, and at a consumer show in Las Vegas one day he lands on the obscure “Tetris” and -Bingo! – this is it he thinks. He manages to get Japanese rights to the game but it turns out they don’t exist.
