PS4 lead architect hopes Sony’s legacy can match Nintendo’s
PlayStation 4 lead architect Mark Cerny held a presentation in Spain today, where he expressed a desire for Sony to match Nintendo’s legacy.
Cerny’s comments were made at Gamelab in Barcelona. During his presentation, Cerny mentioned how – in the future – he hopes that Sony’s “amazing” nucleus personnel will lead some to compare Sony’s impact in the industry.
Cerny referenced Sony Computer Entertainment CEO Andrew House and Sony Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida in his speech. Much like himself, House and Yoshida were appointed to senior positions at Sony in a similar manner.
“I have a great friend who lives in Kyoto in the eastern part of Japan. He runs a developer there and he’s worked with both Sony Computer Entertainment and Nintendo over the years, and he says that what he respects the most about Nintendo is the incredible continuity they have in the form of a core group of individuals that has now worked together for over 30 years.”
