Yoshihisa Tsuda (津田 祥寿 Tsuda Yoshihisa) is a Japanese game developer who has served as the creator, director and author for the main Azure Striker Gunvolt series of games since its debut in 2014. During his time at Capcom he was one of Mega Man 7's planners and the co-designer of Mega Man X2.
Career[]
A huge Mega Man fan, Tsuda was the driving force behind Inti Creates creating the Mega Man Zero series. Whenever there was a game convention, he would hound Keiji Inafune about the possibility of making a Mega Man game and conveyed the company's desire to in any way he could.
One day Inafune called them to ask if they were ever planning on actually sending a proposal, and the company got to work. This eventually shaped into Mega Man Zero at Inafune's request, and Tsuda was the one who originally asked "What if we made X the last boss?", which ended up being the plan until the last month of development when it was switched to Copy X instead.[1]

Trivia[]
- Tsuda was one of those responsible for creating the character "Green Biker Dude".[2]
