He was also involved in the development of further ''Wario'' games as a designer; for ''[[Virtual Boy Wario Land]]'', he acted as a director again. However, for ''Wario'' games released after ''[[Wario Land 4]]'', his role is mostly limited to the Wario design and advising, according to the staff credits of the respective games. For example, during the development of ''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]'', Kiyotake supervised the numerous forms of disguised Wario designed by [[SUZAK Inc.|SUZAK]].<ref>[http://spong.com/feature/10109549 Interview "Yutaka Hirata on ''Wario: Master of Disguise''" at SPOnG]</ref> | ||
