Sega's president Shuji Utsumi has discussed his company's position on the digital versus physical games debate. He says that while Japanese culture focuses on physical media, the rising global popularity of PC gaming means the company needs to emphasize improving its digital releases.

"Of course consoles are important, but at the moment, we're seeing an increase in the number of people playing on PC."
