Ken Kutaragi to leave SCEI

[StefanS]

I think that article about Iwata is misinterpretation or something, in this Bloomberg article Iwata says no possibility for that.

Yep, Nintendo headhunting for KK has been debunked already.

From the Eurogamer article, it's obvious it'd never happen. KK set up PlayStatoin to go totally against Nintendo's philosophy of 'do new things with old hardware'. He wants the latest cutting-edge tech, and Nintendo is the last place to find that!

Its certainly much better then 1up's article, but they are wrong about kutaragi failing to make Sony's electronics division profitable again.

i think so too. It's my understanding the bravia LCD's are a result from Kutaragi decision do work with samsung when he was in charge.
