Mr. Hirai's greetings. And at the time of 2005 SCE's dream movie flowed.


Below, Hirai 's comment summary.

As "catch the reality" into catch phrases, Sony Computer Entertainment aims to capture the reality into the virtual world and to hypothetically influence the reality.

Cell processor and HDD etc are loaded, and in 2009 we redesigned the design. In 2010, "PS 3" which realized correspondence to 3D content by updating, new concept of "network" is incorporated. "PlayStation Network" accounts exceeded 69 million.

Looking to the environment surrounding portable game machines, we are making a change that I could not imagine, compared with the time when PSP was released. In order to play games outside, there was no choice but to carry a gaming machine, but with the advancement of technology it has become possible to play games on smart phones and tablet terminals as well.

In order to accurately respond to constantly changing markets, a proactive approach as a hardware maker is also necessary. It was a problem of hardware specifications in the past, it was realized only with a dedicated machine, but now it can also be used with multifunction portable devices.

What we will present today is a cross-platform strategy of "providing game functions to portable devices other than PSPs".
