1st paragraph 3rd line[edit]

"He was the producer technologies". That sentence doesn't sound right, even if you put an "of" in it. Would the author, or someone otherwise in the know correct it, please.

Misspelling in lead[edit]

There's a mispelling in his name in the first paragraph, not sure how to fix it.

Gunpei Yokoi was not involved with the development of the Tamagochi[edit]

That was Akihiro Yokoi — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.54.136.105 (talk) 17:41, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Koto, Bandai and the WonderSwan[edit]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned his involvement with the WonderSwan, or his own company, Koto, which produced the handheld with Bandai. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.93.189.121 (talk)
