Ides User's Club Disk Magazine Interviews
NOTE: ALL OF THESE INTERVIEWS ARE IN JAPANESE ONLY AND ARE CURRENTLY UNTRANSLATEDThe Ides User's Club Disk Magazine was a series of fandisks that were distributed between 1993 and 1995, and mainly served as a catalog of current and upcoming releases under the Fairytale, Cocktail Soft and FMC labels. Among the additional content compiled for these disks include a series of interviews conducted with various staffers working at IDES under the time. The interviewer appears to have been the credited editor-in-chief, Keiichiro "Neon Color" Koike, an independent programmer who programmed the Game Technopolis games, directed the Erotic Baka Novel series, ran the FMC label and wrote the scenario for the infamous "Utusge" Kurutta Kajitsu. The interviews explore not just the interviewees' works but the interviewees themselves, as any good interview does, and they carry the same unique banter that can be seen in the CG-collection-turned-convo-simulator Bishoujo Tsuushin - Chat no Susume.
