Sam Hipp

When he’s not remixing video game music on his Twitch streams, Sam loves playing and re-playing retro and new video games alike, especially on his gaming PC.
Also, having spent most of his adult life in Tokyo, Sam speaks Japanese at a high level (JLPT N2) and has developed a fondness for Japanese games (Nintendo in particular).
Now based in Seattle, Washington, he continues to embrace his love for gaming, and hopes to convey that passion in his reviews for Game Raven.
