Hum ...

There are 2 video game music composers whose names romanize to Kenji Yamamoto. 山本健誌 and 山本健司.

Kenji Yamamoto ( 山本健誌 ) used to work for Nintendo as a composer. He composed the music for the Metroid series, Famicom Tantei Club series and numerous others like Mike Tyson Punch Out.

Kenji Yamamoto ( 山本健司 ) has been a composer for the Dragon Ball / Z series of games licenced by Bandai, starting from the SNES era to the recent PS2 one. He released several arrange albums of his compositions.

If anyone feels like editing accordingly ... 00:47, 20 June 2007 User:82.227.60.215

We should split it into Kenji Yamamoto (composer born 1958) (the DBZ composer) and Kenji Yamamoto (composer born 1964) (the Metroid composer). On top of that, we shall have a Kenji Yamamoto (disambiguation) page to take care of these two and another Kenji Yamamoto (footballer). – Fanatix 12:50, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

Programmer

I think Kenji Yamamoto is a programmer, because there was also a "Kenji Yamamoto" who appeared in the credits of Super Mario Kart as "programmer," and he was in the Special Thanks list from Star Fox. I'm guessing they're all the same person. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.77.61.40 (talk) 12:27, 16 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Page split

I split the page to divide the two composers. - Kaleb.G 19:23, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pictures?

Does anyone know if there are any pictures of Kenji Yamamoto that have fair use criteria? Abodos (talk) 03:45, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No. He is a living person, therefore only a free image would be usable. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 04:05, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Citation style

I believe it would be better if all references here used Citation Style 1 or 2. The "Title Website" style is unclear to readers, especially ones in print where the links are barely separated. Glades12 (talk) 17:16, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DKC: TF

I found a source for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Goergen, Andy (2014-02-12). "Donkey Kong Country, Through the Years". Nintendo World Report. Retrieved 2020-04-15. Original series composer David Wise has confirmed his return to work with Kenji Yamamoto to compose music for the game[...]). However, I have also screwed up the table formatting and can't fix it. Can someone help? Glades12 (talk) 07:16, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind; the problem has been fixed. Glades12 (talk) 14:23, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
