Former PlayStation Exec Has Joined Nintendo
A former longtime PlayStation employee and gaming industry veteran, Gio Corsi, has recently announced he has joined Nintendo in a new position. Gio Corsi previously worked with Sony for a little over six years as the Senior Director for PlayStation regarding the production of third-party games from 2013 to 2018, and then transitioning to Head of Global Second Party games the following year. One of the big initiatives that Corsi was best known for was known as «Building the List,» where Sony helped Sega localize Yakuza 5 for the West when the Like a Dragon franchise was on shaky legs in the mid-2010s compared to the series' blockbuster status today. Corsi would later leave Sony in November 2019.
