>>38276741...and the compression tools helped them put Kanto in it. You're literally nitpicking semantics. Iwata didn't put the whole region there himself yeah but Kanto is there *thanks* to him. Without Iwata there would be no Kanto because like the quote says, they were having trouble fitting everything. So the fandom thanking Iwata for Kanto isn't incorrect. It's like thanking your mom for a bike even if she didn't go and buy it herself, if she gave you the money, then you have it thanks to her.
Anyway, the topic derailed the thread. It doesn't matter though because even without this bit of information, anyone arguing that GF wasn't always shit a coding must've been living under a rock. You don't need to understand coding to see how wonky the games work at times. Pokémon was a success because of the concept. I get being forgiving of gen I because muh indie company, but after all the money they got, they don't have that excuse any longer.
