He designed and created AM2's arguably most famous racing game Daytona USA, as well as the popular titles Super Monkey Ball and Yakuza.

He returned to managing Sega's entire output when New Entertainment turned into CS1 in the middle of 2008. On April 1, 2012, following a 2012 reshuffling, Nagoshi became the CCO of Sega[1]
