Itoi-Style Leap Day Returns

They should have a day where all they do is make Mother games
I’d be down with that! At least I can dream…

Does Itoi secretly write for 30 Rock? because they just had an episode about Leap Day as the day you should do all the crazy things you wouldn’t normally do. They even had a fake Jim Carrey movie!

The man’s a visionary!

Speaking of leap day, another Earthbound poster just appeared on eBay along with an anthology and a couple of other rare things. Man, it must be a lucky day today for Earthbound collectors! 🙂

Dang, I wish my college was more like this! Who wouldn’t be happy to have a day where you can slack off as much as you want?

Spring break doesn’t count! We still get loads of work over it.

I always thought that “copywriter” was a pseudo translation, but it turns out it’s correct: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copywriting

If I ever have my own company, I’ll make it so February 29th is the only day we DON’T act weird. ;D

I want to work for Itoi.

(I find it surprising that the banner for Star Wars is entirely in English)

(…and what is Eggs’n Things?)

OY, ITOI!

When I start hiring employees at my company, I’ll make sure to base some of my human resources practices on Itoi’s company!

I ended up accidentally celebrating this; I had college work, but I drew gryphons and played a lot of Persona 4!

I am happy to say that the 29th of February is my Mothers birthday 🙂 – She is 14. 😀

I couldn’t figure out from the linked-to stories–what does Itoi’s company *do* anyway? What are all those people’s jobs?

It just seems like an office where the job is to have fun all the time… So jealous!

The site is a sort of online magazine full of interesting topics, updated daily with new content. The company also designs and produces many lines of merchandise. There’s more to it than that, but that’s the super simple answer.

Thanks!
