Hideaki Nishino, who took over as PlayStation CEO after Jim Ryan left, spoke about the advantages of console gaming. He said that “the PC is quite difficult to set up” and that with the console you can start the game immediately after turning it on.
Nikkei recently spoke with Hideaki Nishino, discussing with the PlayStation boss the recent price increase for Japanese players and the topic of porting games to PC. In response to a question about other platforms, the magazine’s interlocutor said that consoles can be an excellent alternative for computer and mobile gaming:
I think a lot of mobile games are full of ads and are difficult to set up on PC.
Hideaki Nishino himself believes that the consoles are very easy to use: just turn on the device to start the game. In addition, buying projects for this platform is quite intuitive due to the proper arrangement of games in the digital store, he says.
At the end of the interview, Hideaki Nishino reiterated that the PlayStation 5 remains a priority platform for Sony, despite the increasingly thin list of “exclusives” after PC ports.
Let us remind you that the new generation console PlayStation 5 Pro was recently presented. However, players perceived the announcement rather negatively. Many did not like the price and non-obvious advantages of the device. In addition, the console lost its drive – now you have to buy it separately.
