Sony has announced a bit of corporate shuffling, as Kunimasa Suzuki takes the role of "Representative Director, Deputy President of SCEI" effective next month. He will continue in his position as Deputy President of the Networked Products & Services Group, attaining a rare "Double Deputy" status. In his new role, he'll report to Kaz Hirai "and assist him in managing the day-to-day operations of the PlayStation business overall." Suzuki will head the Strategy Planning and Product Planning divisions of SCEI."I'm extremely excited to join the PlayStation team," said Kunimasa Suzuki, demonstrating his mastery of corporate language. "I'm determined to maximize my contribution to accelerating the expansion of the PlayStation business, one of Sony's core categories, and at the same time play an active role in linking the consumer electronics and PlayStation teams to strategically fuse both businesses and create new and truly unique Sony user experiences."

How many badges do you have to get to become deputy president?

soon we'll live in a world where all PS1 originals come out for everybody in the same week

I hope that soon all PS3 will have backwards compatibility and people can download PS2 classics with improved AA and high resolution.

I agree 100%. Sounds like a job for their new Double Deputy.

Sounds like he's the Assistant to the Regional Manager.

That is one hell of a run on sentence.

Hopefully, this newly appointed guy will help Sony in the midst of their incessant bad decision-making. I'm a Sony fan but...I'm really sick of them and their mistakes although the PS3 is admittedly doing better than it was at first.
