Sad to see Sony wind down Japan Studio. Further explains why a lot of Japanese gamers don't care about / silently hate the PlayStation brand, due to recent management, politics and policy changes. A lot of people used to socially identify and associate the PlayStation brand with Japanese gaming, but that definitely isn't the case anymore.
"I look at that giant launch-model PS3 and suddenly I’m back in Times Square, November 2006, covering the PS3 launch professionally, young and naive and feeling incredibly fortunate to be living my dream."
I still watch that 2006 GameSpot PS3 launch video to this day! (and all the old On the Spot's, Tournament TV's, etc). Though, it seemed like you had a lot more fun covering the Wii launch than the PS3's :P
