Yu Suzuki really deserves his Lifetime Achievement Award when you think about all the arcade games developped under his direction while he was working at Sega: Champion Boxing, Hang-On, Space Harrier, Enduro Racer, OutRun, After Burner, Power Drift, G-LOC - Air Battle, Virtua Racing, Virtua Fighter 1 to 4, Fighting Vipers, F355 Challenge 1 and 2, ... Of course, he's also famous among console players for his masterpieces: Shenmue and Shenmue II on Dreamcast. The long awaited release of Shenmue III will happen on PC and PS4 next week. Even if he told that he would like to return to licences such as OutRun and Virtua Fighter, it will depends on Sega's will (for whom he's a consultant) as they own the brands. He however told in an interview that somthing could happen... Once Shenmue III released, we'll be looking forward his next arcade game. You may watch the award ceremony on this video of The Golden Joysticks Awards 2019 (including a praise by Peter Moore).
