Ken Kutaragi resigns from Playstation

Postby ssj100matt » Thu Apr 26, 2007 10:03 am

According to Kotaku, Ken Kutaragi has stepped down from his position at Playstation... He will still apparently be a Honorary Chairman at SCEI but he will pursue other endeavors outside of Playstation....

I am happy to graduate from Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. after introducing four platforms to the PlayStation family. It has been an exciting experience to change the world of computer entertainment by marrying cutting edge technologies with creative minds from all over the world. I'm looking forward to building on this vision in my next endeavors.


This makes me wonder if he was asked to resign... Considering that he has been the root of a lot of stupid idealistic comments, it wouldn't surprise me if they want to make him the scapegoat for a lot of the PS3's problems.... Either way this is a little surprising since he is the creator and visionary for the Playstation system... And it makes me wonder if this will mean any more changes at Sony over this news...



As a side note ive read that he will be moving to Easton, PA to be closer to the Crayola Crayons factory... :P

I'm missing where he introduced platforms to the Playstation family.

The Matrix-esque, DVD HD-aging platforms he introduced in his keynotes were only tangentially related to the hardware eventually produced by Sony :)
