Around 1987 he would begin researching synthesizer sound and PCM, or pulse code modulation, a type of sound generation that samples and reproduces sounds by means of digital signal processing. Up to this point, the commonplace technique was frequency modulation, FM. Kutaragi found that the sound produced by the Sony PCM generator was several times better than FM, and thus began to pitch a sales proposal to Nintendo. At first, Nintendo was reluctant to switch to PCM because all existing Famicom software assets were FM-based.
Nonetheless, PCM proved to be superior to FM with respect to software flexibility as well; the PCM format held for greater potential for software innovation, a crucial factor in game-machine design [Asakura]. Nintendo ultimately adopted Kutaragi’s proposal, which quickly led to a close relationship between the two companies.
