  Yes, but largely by a Japanese team moved over out of hopes they could train the Americans and corporate politics.

    He absolutely was not. The first Sonic game involving American developers was Sonic 2 on Genesis (developed at Sega Technical Institute with a combined American and Japanese crew), and he did not work on that game.
