Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida has said that Japanese developers are making “slow progress” compared to the West thanks to a generational shift in technology power to the US and Europe

Overall it's quite interesting, it gives good insight into the new structure at SCEWWS.

Seems like Yoshida-San is doing the business in Japan. Good news for all of us hopefully.

So what does this say about the furture of japan? are they at least trying to fix it? it doesn't seem like it from the interview.

The fact that he is even discussing it means he recognises there is a problem. That is a very big step, especially at a company like SCE where everything has been very easy for them in the last two generations.

I think Yoshi, Tretton and Reeves have been doing a good job overall, Kaz hasn't really done much since he got the job, which is kind of disappointing.
