Genius Scientist in Japan

I have never heard of this guy, but he actually invented the floppy disk, as well the basics of the CD and DVD according to Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshiro_Nakamatsu

He states he licensed the floppy disk to IBM in the late 70s, and IBM says they have an ongoing relationship with him. He seems eccentric though. Over 3000 inventions. Only big in Japan though? I wonder why?

Thank You
