He’s easily the most sympathetic and charismatic top dog of the three platform holders. It’s difficult not to like him. The others should heed his example as one particular NA guy from another platform holder sounds very conceited and arrogant in each of his public statements.

Yep, Yoshida is a class act. And it’s a good thing he is SCEWWS chief, because he just loves games.

That’s not why he bought a WiiU.

He bought a WiiU because he’s a gamer.

If you think he bought a WiiU to study the system, then you don’t know Yoshida.

Yoshida is a class act and all gamers should learn from him.

What to you expect? Same thing happen when reggie said he has a 360 and loves to play gears of war.

I think he said on twitter that he often purchases both NA and JPN systems.

He may simply be curious why similar features on the PS-Vita are not as popular in use as they are within MiiVerse.

For those of you only with MiiVerse, if you have the SiNG Party game, and allow it, the way it posts activity and rewards to MiiVerse automatically is how PS-Vita games post such things to game specific “community”. These are private and can only be seen by friends. The Vita version also allow “Likes / Yeahs” and people to comment on those activity posts. These auto-posts can be too noisy (and pointless in many cases in my view just like trophy notifications being shared are pointless) so it is good that they remain private and for friends only.

MiiVerse off course also has the Twitter like broadcast of manually created posts that are also game “community” specific but can be seen by anybody looking at that community.

People that compare MiiVerse to Facebook or call it Facebook for games don’t know what they are talking about. It is Twitter for games :)

Yoshida is one of the smartest people on Sony’s leadership team but his influence is restricted to Software and Services. I just wish they had some smart people on the hardware side to prevent decisions like proprietary memory card formats and other such failings.

Sony is having some tough times, but they aren’t going to fall over dead or anything. They still have way to strong of a foundation to just crumble. (Not just with ps brand.)

As for the AR/VR stuff, I’ve read about it, and some of the recent rumor mill stuff has said they will be a huge focus for the next Playstation. That might happen, but until Sony announces the official specs and details of the next PS, it’s still considered by most to be rumor.

they are greeting him ^^

Sal.. his friend list almost maxed 94/100 Dx

Nope I am basing this on SONY huge lost current gen and the overall market. Next gen will be about innovation AR and VR with a slight upgrade on graphics. SONY is in a very tight spot they can’t afford to sell a console like they did with the PS3 at first they have just started seeing profit with the PS3 about 2 years ago. XBOX unlike SONY had Live which they profit from so they can sell a powerhouse at a loss and Nintendo knows all about profit so they are ok as seen with the Wii which was cheap to make a sold for profit.

@yosp I thought Nintendo is your rival. How did that happen? What’s going on?! Did Hell just froze over this?! Answer me!!

@KaraszKun if you are in the industry, you would try new hw and services, right? what’s wrong with you!

You’re basing all of this on rumours my friend. Don’t disappoint yourself and take them with a grain of salt.

Sonydrones have already started asking him retarded questions on his twitter.
