The origin of the PlayStation's now-iconic name might seem elusive to many fans, but Shuhei Yoshida says its conception came down to just one other device – the PC.
Speaking in a recent interview after leaving PlayStation last year, the former president of SIE Worldwide Studios for Sony tells MinnMax how the original console got its name – and no, it wasn't because of Nintendo. Despite Sony's platform initially coming to fruition thanks to a failed partnership with Nintendo, it was actually PlayStation's own so-called "father" Ken Kutaragi who came up with the idea for the console's name.
