Timeline Faulty
This article currently states that Team Ninja was "founded in 1995" and that "their first game, Dead or Alive, [hit] the U.S. shelves in 1998" however the article also credits Team Ninja with "the Ninja Gaiden series" in two places. Ninja Gaiden was released in 1988 with sequels in 1990 and 1991. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.227.162.34 (talk • contribs) 11:14, 17 December 2006
 * Yeah, that got me too. Something's messed up with the dates.  Either it's Ninja Gaiden in 1988, or Team Ninja founded in 1995. --Trakon 06:41, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * It is referring to the 3D Ninja Gaiden games which just came out recently. Not the 2D ones. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.242.67.72 (talk • contribs) 14:50, 5 April 2007
 * Yeah, exactly. Team Ninja didn't develop the original 2D series. I removed the two "Ninja Gaiden series" mentions so it wouldn't be as misleading.--BD Third 08:26, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Srewed around
I don't like how Koei screwed around with thigs in Dynasty Warriors. For example: Wei Yan. I know he wasn't anywhere near the smartest guy out there, but Koei pushed it to the point to where he couldn't even string a whole sentance togeather! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.88.223.90 (talk • contribs) 03:32, 9 July 2005

This Article is Totally Misguided
Kou Shibusawa and Eiji Fukuzawa DO NOT EXIST and never have.

The founders of Koei are Yoichi and Keiko Erikawa. Yoichi was a student at Keio University, and after his family's rural dyestuffs business failed he decided to find another line of work. The company to this day is located in Hiyoshi, along with Keio University, and the campany's name is simply a spoonerism of the school's. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.213.199.133 (talk • contribs) 11:46, 17 October 2005

 * "Kou Shibusawa: I've been in the industry for 25 years. The company was started in 1978 as a chemical wholesale company. My wife gave me a computer, and developing game software became a hobby of mine. A game which I developed was so interesting that we decided to sell it. However, Nobunga's Ambition in 1983 was our first big hit."

 * "'Toronto is a vibrant city with a rich cultural mosaic that provides us with the necessary talent to develop games for a global marketplace,' said Koei's founder and game designer Yoichi Erikawa, who has worked on many of the company's biggest games under the name Kou Shibusawa." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.15.3.5 (talk • contribs) 17:31, 30 November 2005
