Career
Yuri Fukuda joined Sega, specifically Amusement Vision, in 2003[3], which is the same year Hideki Naganuma moved to said company. The first game she was associated with, although she did not work on it, was F-Zero GX/AX, for which she autographed a set of T-shirts for giveaway in 2003[3].
The first game Fukuda is known to have worked on is Yakuza, creating much of its cutscene music, and she continued to do this as a series regular.
She made her debut as sound director with Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD, a remake of a title she was previously involved with, and would reprise this role for Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania.
