Hiroshi Yamauchi and go

Post by beans »

I remember reading an anecdote about Hiroshi Yamauchi (Nintendo president 1949-2002) being an avid go player, and that it was partly his appreciation of go that allowed him to coax the company through the video game crash of the early eighties to long-term success. Does anyone know of such an article? I'd like to read it again but have no idea where I might have seen it...
