Sugiyama is also known as a historical revisionist on Japanese history. Especially on Nanking Massacre and Comfort Women problem, Sugiyama completely denies guilt of Japanese Empire. He is one of the approval person of "The Facts" advertisement on Washington Post. Some Dragon Quest fans out of Japan said they have been disappointed by his political stance.

Sugiyama is a self-admitted "game freak," who still counts game collecting among his hobbies. In fact, his first contact with Enix was a fan letter he wrote them regarding a PC shogi game in the early '80s. After Enix's staff overcame the shock of receiving a handwritten postcard from a celebrity of Sugiyama's stature, they were so impressed by his depth of knowledge and appreciation of games that they decided to ask Sugiyama to write the music for Dragon Quest.
