Tokuro Fujiwara

Tokuro Fujiwara (藤原 得郎, Fujiwara Tokurō, born April 7, 1961),[1] sometimes credited as Professor F or Arthur King, is a Japanese video game designer, involved in the development of many classic Capcom video games. He directed early Capcom titles such as the run-and-gun shooter Commando (1985), the platformers Ghosts 'n Goblins (1985) and Bionic Commando (1987), and the survival horror game Sweet Home (1989). He was also a main producer for the Mega Man series and worked on the CP System arcade game Strider (1989). He also conceived of Resident Evil as a remake of his earlier game Sweet Home, and worked on the game as general producer.[2], which introduced the Super Famicom platform in 1993.[3][4][5] He worked as the general manager of the Capcom Console Games Division from 1988 to 1996.
