The creator of Pokemon suffers from Asperger Syndrome!

As the creator of Nintendo's Pokémon series, Satoshi Tajiri is one of the most important (if not well-known) developers working in video games today.

Like another Nintendo legend, Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto, Tajiri's most popular work has been directly inspired by his childhood experiences and hobbies.

While Miyamoto's Zelda was the product of boyhood explorations, however, Tajiri's role-playing juggernaut is the product of, as you may expect, boyhood insect collections.

Tajiri is unlike most other noted game developers in that he has according to both Western and Japanese reports been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, a condition that can - as seen in first his insect collecting and then fascination with games - lead to incredibly focused activities, often at the expense of other duties.
