Sega Mobile’s new vice president of product sees ‘me, too’ clones as mistakes in mobile gaming

Sega Mobile announced today that it’s picked up experienced mobile game executive Joseph Kim and slotted him into the role of vice president of product. In that position, Kim will be responsible for the overall direction of the mobile game division’s output and working with product managers to ensure those products are successful.

Kim has a long resume of experience in the mobile gaming, having been the studio lead at FunPlus, vice president of product management at Gaia Interactive, and consultant for SmileGate. I got a chance to sit down and shoot Kim a couple of questions about his new gig.
