Nippon Ichi CEO Sohei Shinkawa decided to reveal what got him into the game industry. It turns out he owes his passion for gaming to one series in particular, Final Fantasy. It was Final Fantasy V in particular that made Shinkawa stop his third year in college in order to find a job at a game company. Shinkawa applied to over 50 game companies, with Nippon Ichi winning in the end.
