	Keiji Inafune - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The designs of Keiji's character was also heavily influenced by Japanese animation, and he notes that he took observations from other video game characters present at the time, such as Mario.
		One of Keiji's recent additions is the now-popular Rockman.EXE/Megaman Battle Network series, which is set outside the continuity of the rest of the Mega Man storylines and introduced RPG and strategy elements.
		Inafune and his team are currently working on a single game for Xbox 360.

	Interview - Mr. Onimusha speaks // PlayStation 2 /// Eurogamer
		Keiji Inafune: Yes he did the French part, but we decided there should be some common language, and French couldn't be it so we got someone else to do the English voice.
		Keiji Inafune: There is no plan at this moment mainly because they know very well how to make Onimusha appeal to the gamer on PS2, but we don't know whether it will have the same appeal on PSP.
		Keiji Inafune: The team that made Onimusha is very good at making action games, and is the same team that made Onimusha 3 and they wanted to make it as action-packed as possible, and make it the best action game they could.

	Interview - Map to a Lost Planet // Xbox 360 /// Eurogamer
		Keiji Inafune: I guess it's pretty standard practice that if you release a demo you don't want to make it so hard that people are dying in 30 seconds.
		Keiji Inafune: With O3, right from the start you intentionally knew there were going to be parts in ancient Japan and parts in the future.
		Keiji Inafune is currently working on Dead Rising, due out later this year, and Lost Planet, which is expected to hit sometime in early 2007.

		Keiji Inafune: It was decided to bring more of a real-world feel to the series with the introduction of a boy-hero (Lan) who was placed in an environment where the internet was very prevalent.
		Keiji Inafune: Yes, you are right, it does include both GBA versions, but probably the most important feature for the NDS version is the addition of "Party Battle Mode" - until now, Mega Man (TM) had to battle alone and now he can have two other characters join him on his adventure.
		Keiji Inafune: I think some people may have been put off in the past because of the difficulty level of previous titles in the Battle Network series so we have made the Nintendo DS version slightly easier making it a great introduction to the series.

	N-Philes Forums - Keiji Inafune Talks Onimusha 4
		Inafune hints that the biggest change for Shin Onimusha is its new camera system, which he refers to as a "Free Camera." Previous Onimusha titles were, according to Inafune, simple, leading players on a linear path to solve a very basic quest such as saving a princess.
		Inafune states that Onimusha and Resident Evil have, until now, been about "seeing the next part of the story," and that the zombies and enemies attack between story sequences were just obstacles.
		Inafune seems to have been taken back by the design, but people who were asked to provide their opinion suggested that the design was cool, and so he decided to go with it.

		Keiji Inafune: Yes, uh, Battle Network 6 will be the last version of the Battle Network series, however, we've got a new one, on the uh, the burner right now, and it should be a lot of fun and very interesting.
		Keiji Inafune: Yeah, uh, you're probably familiar, but in Japan, every week we have a new episode of the Mega Man anime, and we are going to try and keep that going as long as possible, and uh, hopefully have some new installments there that all the fans can enjoy.
		Keiji Inafune: PlayStation 3, probably the target audience that's going to purchase the PlayStation 3, uh, it's going to be people with a lot more money, and maybe it would not be the most suitable, uh, platform for the Mega Man series.

		Incidentally, Keiji Inafune, Mega Man creator and current senior corporate officer at Capcom, had admitted to creating Zero to be Mega Man X himself, the character who would replace Mega Man as the hero.
		Inafune had originally planned for Mega Man X5 to be the final game of the Mega Man X series.
		This is thought to be evidence of Rockman creator Keiji Inafune's desire to create a series starring Zero, 5 years prior to it becoming a reality.

	GameSpot: New details on Onimusha 3, Onimusha Buraiden
		Inafune started out by saying that Onimusha 3 would be the last game in the series, simply because the series was designed to be a trilogy to begin with.
		Inafune pointed out that the development team, which features most of the people from the original Onimusha team, actually went to Paris and eventually mapped out entire portion of the city for the game.
		Inafune also added that they can't use Jean Reno's voice for the Japanese or North American versions of Onimusha 3, but that they were hoping that he would lend his voice talents for the French version.

		Inafune thinks that the game industry may be entering into a new stage where it has to turn to outside investors to fund ballooning next-gen budgets, much like the film industry does.

	PS2 Previews: Onimusha 3
		Keiji Inafune, creator of the series, claims this transition was made because new technology will allow his team to recreate the same stunning environments as the first two games while allowing for enhanced control.
		Aside from the fact that pre-rendered backgrounds should be a thing of the past, the other obvious benefit of this is that Onimusha 3 will have a control scheme that is not nearly as shoddy as the first two, which were, unfortunately, rather similar to the controls found in Resident Evil.
		With the proliferation of, and some would even say the reliance upon, sequels these days, Keiji Inafune is making a bold statement by ending the series, perhaps before its time.

		Inafune is the father of our beloved blue bomber, Mega Man. To this day Mega Man is a strong franchise and has seen its fair share of spotlight outside of the videogame industry, having been given its own television cartoon in 1995.
		Inafune is currently the head of Capcom Production Studio 2; but looking back on his past, one will find that he started out on a relatively successful franchise with his first designer job being on the Street Fighter team.
