An artist must first experience life to then encapsulate it. That's what all great artists advise. The devs from back then most definitely vacationed in Okinawa, and knew what a tropical beach looked like and the feelings it evoked. Devs now are either urbanite Californians, stuck in a smog ridden shithole, or outsourced Indians, also stuck in a smog ridden shithole, but somehow extremely worse.
