Xbox和Nintendo刺激了前Playstation Exechei Yoshida的职业生涯中最恐怖的两个时刻

Shuhei Yoshida, former president of Worldwide Studios at Sony Interactive Entertainment, recently shared two particularly daunting moments from his extensive PlayStation career, both orchestrated by competitors Nintendo and Xbox.

吉田在与Minnmax的讲话中，在PlayStation 3提前一年将Xbox 360的版本描述为“非常非常令人恐惧”。 This early launch put PlayStation at a significant disadvantage, as gamers eager for next-gen experiences might opt for the readily available Xbox 360, leaving PlayStation behind.

然而，吉田将任天堂宣布的怪物猎人4（Monster Hunter 4）视为最令人震惊的赛事。 This came as a complete surprise, especially considering the immense success of the Monster Hunter franchise on the PlayStation Portable, which even boasted two exclusive titles. The situation worsened when Nintendo simultaneously slashed the 3DS price by $100, undercutting the PlayStation Vita.

"After launch, both Nintendo 3DS and Vita were $250 but they dropped $100," Yoshida recalled. “我当时想，'哦，我的上帝'。当时他们宣布了最大的游戏……PSP上最大的游戏是Monster Hunter 。这场比赛将仅在Nintendo 3DS上发行。我当时想，'哦，不。' That was the biggest shock."

Yoshida's retirement in January, after over three decades with Sony, has allowed him to share these previously undisclosed insights. His tenure saw him become a prominent figurehead for PlayStation, earning widespread fan appreciation. Since leaving Sony, Yoshida has also offered opinions on Sony's live service strategy and the lack of a Bloodborne remake or sequel.
