Is Outrun Yu Suzuki's magnum opus??

Yu Suzuki on the late addition of "Magical Sound Shower" to Outrun
>near the end of development upper management demanded another song for choosing when playing the game
>while not opposed to the idea it was last minute and not something we wished to worry about especially when we already had "Slash Wave" and "Passing Breeze"
>in frustration I ordered my song writer to make the worst most faggot like ditty he could muster with the hope they would change their minds on the whole thing
>...they love it. It gets added and worse yet a large portion of gamers love it also.
>it was at that point that I realized that a good portion of people have very queer musical taste and anyone that likes Magical Sound Shower(which is named after a local Japanese gay karokee bar) are degenerate faggots

What a neat factoid on a beloved /vr game. Also what's some other great catchy game tunes?

Only five; OutRun, Space Harrier, Turbo OutRun, OutRunners, and Mr. Goemon. I may add Hang-On and Super Hang-On to the lineup, but I'm not content with my skills in the others yet so I'm still practicing. I used to run Sky Kid as well but I wasn't making much progress and it pained me to practice it after a while.

I have an installation of Doom as well which I'm working through and then it'll be deleted, currently almost done with Evilution and then starting Plutionia.

If the mood ever strikes me to play through a childhood game then I just download the emulator and game and delete everything after completion, my last ones were a run of DKC 1, 2, 3.

My Steam account has a few more games, but they haven't been touched in years, and I've removed the ones from my account that I no longer play, last thing I did play was Serious Sam four years ago during tech school.

The extraordinary talents of Yu Suzuki as a game creator are widely known throughout the world, but his talents extend beyond that of Electronic Entertainment. He has a deep and profound love of music and art. Taught by his father to appreciate art and music from his young childhood, Yu Suzuki has profound knowledge and insight into these fields, and even spent his days in junior high school studying calligraphy and illustrations.

He joined Sega as a programmer and a producer, and in his second year he created the first in the world simulation arcade game, "Hang On". After "Hang On", as a pioneer of simulation games, he released many hit titles such as "Out Run". He also set eyes on the high potentials of CG board in the forefront of technology at the time.

In 1993, he created a global sensation with the release of "Virtua Fighter", a 3d computer graphics fighting game. This Virtua Fighter series was highly recognized by the Smithsonian Institution, as an application which made great contribution to the society in the field of Art and Entertainment, and for the first time ever in Japanese Game Industry, became a part of the Smithsonian Institution's Permanent Research Collection on Information Technology Innovation, and is now kept perpetually at the Smithsonian's National Museumof American History in Washington D.C. He vitalized games both culturally, and technologically, and is a meritorious man in the Amusement Industry. His latest achievement is The Academy of Interactive Arts and Science's (AIAS, for short) prestigious Hall of Fame Award. The Hall of Fame Award, a "Lifetime Achievement". Yu Suzuki has left Am2 and currently runs his own studio with Digitalrex.

Why is he the most based man in the industry? There is literally no one cooler.

I just finished reading it yesterday. I don't get the criticism, it reads pretty well for a history book and it's packed with details. My biggest criticism was that it didn't talk much about Yu Suzuki, but it's a Sega company history, not an AM2 history so I get it.
