Shuhei Yoshida looks back at 31 years at Sony PlayStation | exit interview

Shu Yoshida has graduated. He just completed 38 years at Sony, including 31 years at PlayStation, and he completed his last day at the big Japanese company’s gaming division on January 15.

While he’s leaving an illustrious career in the PlayStation business, Yoshida told me in an interview that he’s not done with gaming. He still plans on working with indie game makers, which was his final assignment at Sony Interactive Entertainment. He joined Sony in 1986, right out of college, and went to work in corporate strategy to review budgets and look for new businesses for Sony.
