If you're a diehard PlayStation fan, you're probably still a bit sad about the demise of Japan Studio. "Global users often tell me it was unforgivable to shut down Japan Studio," Yoshida says in translation provided by YouTube. "They say Japan Studio released so many great, creative games. While these "fit perfectly" for systems like PSP and PS Vita, Japan Studio struggled when Sony wanted to ramp things up for its home consoles. "As a company, PlayStation needed games that would drive hardware sales, titles like God of War or Uncharted, so it was hard for Japan Studio to launch new console series."
