Ryōji Yoshitomi is a Japanese composer and sound designer who worked at Nintendo. He still works for Nintendo today, mainly credited as a sound director or a special thanks mention.

Music Development

Game Boy

On his early Game Boy titles, Yoshitomi made use of Hirokazu Tanaka's sound driver. Later on, Yoshitomi designed his own sound driver, which he began using with either Metroid II or Game Boy Wars, and was also used by Kozue Ishikawa.

SNES

Much like Nintendo's other composers, Yoshitomi used the Kankichi-kun driver for his Super Nintendo Entertainment System games, using Hirokazu Tanaka's version for Mario Paint, and an unknown programmer's version (possibly Yoshitomi's own) for Super Scope 6.
