He was the creator of the Shin Megami Tensei video games and the Devil Summoner and Persona spinoffs, directing and producing most of the original titles with Kazuma Kaneko.

On April 7, 1986, Okada formed Atlus with six others, where he was the creative force behind the Megaten series along with Kazuma Kaneko.
