Early years
Toyama started his path in the video game industry after his enjoyment of playing
Space Invaders. He had read magazines that featured games like Space Invaders, Star Wars, and
Gundam. He always wanted to enjoy those games at home. He originally wanted to either get a Sharp MZ-80 or an NEC PC-8001, but in the end, he started with a
Hitachi Basic Master Level 2. After testing the games on it, he had no choice but to do game programming on his own.
