Mike Fischer, former Sega of America vice president of entertainment marketing, recalls working with Sonic co-creator Yuji Naka, and not very fondly.
Fischer worked for Sega in the early 90s before returning to the company in the early 2000s, and speaking to Sega 16, he explains, "It was wonderful to go back and reconnect with those people. It was less pleasant to deal with Naka-san." He recalls speaking about trends in the western market going towards mature games, with the soon-to-be-developed Yakuza playing into this nicely. But Fischer recalls, "Naka just went fucking ballistic on me, yelling at me, saying I wanted to make porno games."
