Meta:Interview

This is a list of archived interviews by the developers and publishers. Interviews are often only available on archive.org via the wayback machine and are hosted here to aid in the goal of making a one-stop-shop and to archive all things Mystery Dungeon. Additionally, the goal is to make otherwise impossible to obtain interviews for most people viewable and usable as sources, such as those found in the various strategy guides or magazines most people would be unable to track down. That being said, please consider visiting the original websites when they're still available.
