Towards the end of the '90s, Osaki's role shifted again to that of a supervisor, showing the most prominence in ''[[Shenmue II]]''.  Following this, though, he would take on many executive roles as a producer (''[[The King of Route 66]]'') and once more as a director (''[[OutRun 2]]'', ''[[Virtua Quest]]'', ''[[Virtua Fighter 5]]'').
