Persona 2: Innocent Sin
Ginji Sasaki once belonged to a one-hit wonder band, but since dropped out of celebrity radar and tried to eke out a living as a record producer, though he earned a reputation of making advances to the women he represents, particularly, teenage idols. In desperation, he performed the Joker-sama summoning ritual, and was enlisted in the Masquerade as an Executive, Prince Taurus, tasked with collecting Ideal Energy from young people. Through rumors he spread, he created a fake band called MUSES, involving Lisa Silverman and other Seven Sisters alumni. However, he was humiliatingly defeated and forced back into obscurity.

Late in the game, he tried to follow the party into Xibalba and got hit by one of the traps. His remains were found later by the party.

Persona 2: Eternal Punishment
He was revived and forced into working for the New World Order, presenting a seminar at a local mall, with the intention of draining locals of their Kegare, the opposite energy of Ideal Energy. However, he was discovered by Maya Amano and was forced to defend the Kegare stores in a violent shootout. Not too long after, though, the tanks were shattered and he was doused in the energy, transforming him into a JOKER.
