Damn, Shuhei Yoshida will be leaving Sony Interactive Entertainment on January 15, 2025

This is so sad, is he leaving or retiring?

One of the nicest guys around.

Leaving. Says he still wants to work in the games industry.

PSP didn't only have a much stronger library of exclusives than the Vita, but the hardware itself was simply out of this world. It was truly futuristic and cool af not just as a video game console, but as an innovative piece of technology.

Hardware and homebrews carried the PSP. When the Vita launched, smart phones were around and mainstream. The wow factor difference is night and day.

Vita hardware was far more impressive.

It even had a OLED screen, back in 2011.

Vita was impressive but an ipad 3 inside. 2004 PSP was more impressive with the concept of a potential PS2 in your pocket. It wasn't as powerful as that but at the time that was the impression. PSP is closer to a portable Dreamcast than PS2 but still mindblowing for the time. PSP was custom so nothing on the market at the time even compared in any form. Tapwave. N-Gage. were PS1 level. GBA was a suped up SNES. DS closer to N64/PS1.

Kyuu is wrong. PSP had a great library. Esp for RPGs.

Gave it a very quick read and seems like it was his choices, but even so, wtf is Sony doing to not convice the guy to stay? The guy was there with them since before the PS1 was even released!

Huge, massive loss for Playstation.

Hopefully Shu finds another place he likes a lot too, I would genuinely like to be friends with the guy, where he goes to should be pretty glad to have him.
