Konami invited Hideo Kojima and Yoji Shinkawa, respectively creator and character designer of the Metal Gear series (among others), to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the cult series. On May 9, the two men hosted a masterclass at the MK2 Bibliothèque, reserved for journalists and a few lucky fans, then they participated in a signing session at Uniqlo the next day, open to all. The fine Nemcoshow team published a report on the event on their blog, and took the opportunity to announce the big news. It is once again thanks to them and to our friend Florent Gorges, who had already allowed us to induct Yoshihisa Kishimoto and who participated in our recent podcast, that Mr. Kojima and Mr. Shinkawa agreed to become honorary members of the association. And they are not a little proud of it, since Solid Snake's dad, addicted to Twitter, shared the event on his account. And here is the Nemcoshow video:
We will publish the official press release soon.
