There's a works list of some kind in their 25th anniversary book. [1] CRV (talk) 16:37, 2 February 2018 (UTC)

I've ordered a copy of the book (it's the sort of thing I collect anyway) so we'll see just what it says in a few weeks. --Dimitri (talk) 04:16, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
I hope you enjoy the book because someone posted the list on 2ch. [2] CRV (talk) 16:07, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

He's also credited on Message Navi Vol. 2. CRV (talk) 22:52, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

Regarding SS/PS1 Zork: credits suggest this is by the group that left Arcsys to start Starlight Marry... but it was released after Wizard's Harmony and before Eternal Melody. Starlight Marry's old website doesn't list a founding date but most sources say 1996, which even in January wouldn't leave enough time for development and a March release. As such, it was probably done at Arcsys just before the team left the company. Entirely speculation, though... --Dimitri (talk) 09:14, 1 October 2016 (CEST)

  • Sanou (Kokumei)'s Home Page.
  • OKAMOTO Lynn's Profile. It was a part-time job staff of the Arc System Works. "セーラームーンばかり作っていた" .
  • 2ch Post No 67.
  • A part of BGM of "Mappy Kids" looks like BGM of "Fushigi no Yume no Alice" very much. It might be the one by the same sound staff.
  • The following games share a font with SD Sengoku Bujutsu Retsuden and Battle Commander: Dokuganryuu Masamune (FC) --Ita 12:23, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
This album credits a Mappy Kids track to Nobuyuki Ohnogi. CRV 12:56, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
It is "Mappy (AC)". VGMdb is wrong. List of another homepage, listen online 5:37~ -Ita 11:33, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
Mappy Kids' ROM says 'by PIRO'. Also, I'm pretty sure Junya Kozakai was involved with the music for Final Lap because some of the tracks are similar to Cyber Spin SNES. The Fujioka Qualify music in Cyber Spin sounds identical to the first race theme and a little of the main menu in Final Lap. Though Atsuko Iwanaga may have worked on a bit of the music.
