Who Made Final Fantasy?

This time a request to cover Final Fantasy, and being that I grew up on Final Fantasy, with FF3 (US) / FFVI being my first one, yeah, I'm down! While it's pretty well known Hironobu Sakaguchi created Final Fantasy, I really wanted to talk about the team in whole along with Sakaguchi, and how they came together to create the first Final Fantasy that would launch into a global phenomenon.
