Later this week there will be an interview with a panel of former execs from the three main Console companies, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo.
This remarkable interview will feature three former executives. Ex Xbox Executive Robbie Bach, former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime and none other than former PlayStation higher up who was part of the team that created the original PlayStation Jack Tretton. The interview will take place during the New York Game Awards.
The news was Tweeted by Reggie Fils-Aime himself recently.
This interview should be interesting given the experience of each of the former execs, and it will be intriguing to see if there will be any interesting titbits of information that will be revealed.
The interview will be virtual this year as is now the norm due to the pandemic, which has changed the nature of interviews somewhat. The host of the Awards is said to be Reggie Fils-Aime himself.
