Yuji Naka
Sega's state seemed critical, however even if Sega collapses, Oguchi assured that Hitmaker will continue to exist. He also played a crucial role in allowing "Segagaga" to continue development which was initially taken as a joke by other Sega management. Oguchi was promoted in 2003 alongside Yuji Naka and Toshihiro Nagoshi, based on the success of arcade games that used cards and medals.
