People in quote: - Hidemaro Fujibayashi, age 39. Director of Skyward Sword. - Yohei Fujino. Planner for Skyward Sword's Sand Sea and Sand Ship. Quote: "Fujibayashi: [About Skyward Sword’s Sand Sea] The first thing I thought was, ‘What would be interesting to contrast with a desert when it transforms?’ And if there's a sea, there's got to be a boat. … Fujino: I thought it sounded interesting. He wanted to have a boat, so I gathered a bunch of resources about ships. Fujibayashi: His desk was really something. It was piled high with books about water vessels, cross-sections, blueprints, and such."

PEOPLE: - Eiji Aonuma, age 46. Producer of Spirit Tracks. - Takashi Tezuka, age 49. Supervisor on Spirit Tracks, co-creator of the Zelda series. - Yohei Fujino. Planner for Spirit Tracks, programming on previous Zelda titles. Likely the planner Aonuma refers to. QUOTE: "Aonuma: One of our lead planners for [Spirit Tracks] is a programmer, so he has a different, more scientific or mathematical approach, so to say, to creating puzzles. Development team members, including Mr. Tezuka and myself, actually got stuck in several places. So the dungeons and puzzles pose a different type of challenge than what we have utilized in previous games, and will certainly require longtime Zelda fans to approach each challenge differently. I believe that the latter half of the Tower of Spirits dungeon in The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks — [which] players will revisit throughout the game — has puzzles which require a different type of approach from those of previous games."
