There's a collection of comments from Mario Club requesting Tajiri difficult up parts of Red/Green to let they, the adult playtesters have a more challenging experience with each rebutted or denied by Tajiri because he didn't want to put that kind of shit into the games he was developing with a view to provide children an experience of travelling greenspaces and catching things to battle, as he'd done in his childhood, because of the loss of greenspaces in Japan between his childhood and adulthood, leaving more children trapped in the concrete jungle. Never mind, they built a merchandising empire off children, when it came to promote the games with a TV show, they made a kodomo anime, instead of a shonen anime, the gatcha cards sold in toy shops or beside the sweets in newsagents, not with the booze, fags or johnnies in the big boy shops. Masuda didn't create this and Tajiri intended to present them to a particular age range of human being.
