Sounds like a great accomplishment, but seems like a bad article. I skimmed if trying to find out what the AIAS is, but didn't see it. There also seems to be typos, including (what seems to be) in the name of the person the article is about.

I too was curious, but are we even reading the same article? Literally the first sentence:

Koji Kondo, longtime composer for The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Bros. franchises, will be inducted into the Academy of Interactvie Arts & Sciences Hall of Fame at this year's D.I.C.E. Awards

Thanks. I'd skimmed it, and was looking for something that put the initialism together with what it spells out. Didn't catch it without it the two together, LOL (Laughing Out Loud)!

N64 was the reason I fell in love with the franchise. Not sure why Koji Kondo wasn’t already in this so called hall of fame.

Crazy that Koji Kondo got on there before Tezuka, Aonuma and Koizumi, though it most likely helps to have a longer history working for the company than they do.
