iirc, he was also involved in the shitty 3DS Federation game I never played. 

I was Sylux and 80% of lobbies were Trace or Samus. Rock dude was great for getting up top with his transformation and bombing the fuck out of people with his improved grenade lobber.

Didn't he end up in a sort of industry exile over taking Microsoft money to grow their market in Japan prior to even founding Mistwalker? I know there's a lot of really odd things about his departure behind the scenes. Like, legitimately did a lot for the entire industry and then just fell off the map in 2003 and never really bounced back, settling for two 360 games (a console that was piss poor in sales in Japan), a Wii game I never played, then mobile hell for over a decade.
