means about the same amount as it does for Knack.
Think more publishing, less developping. Development is lead by SCE WWS anyway.

SCEJA? Hopefully it results in more games output.
Really? I thought he just took a break after departed from Level-5 3 months ago.

At long as it still means Asia English game.
Wonder how many will lose their job, if any.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
So they're merging? Huh, that's interesting, must be a consolidation move.

Sony is really starting to fucking scare me.
...?
Say SCE JA out loud as two words (not by individually letters) and tell me again how this isn't a prank
A merger is considered a joke?
You have no idea who "yosp" is huh..

I wonder, could this have anything to do with Sony's dealings with China recently? Aren't they trying to finalise a deal to allow for console sales there again?

If that's the case here, its a shitty unfunny prank that literally no one cares about. It isn't that Sony Computer Entertainment Japan vanished into thin air, its just merged/consolidated with their asian branches.
There's nothing funny about it. Unless you're being factitious.
Of course, I have no doubt many people would read the title and assume SCEJ is actually dead. Which would mean not even bothering with the OP. Par for the course on internet forums I guess.
Business' don't really do this (i.e. put out somewhat plausible jokes about their companies like "Apple is getting rid of the iPod") unless they've got a deathwish. Its safe to assume that April 1st means nothing to most companies, except for marketing who might put out some silly "SONY has created a baby translator device" joke.
Uh...okay.
Sounds good, but I guess ther future console outut will determine that. Things have been looking better recently though. Puppeteer looks really good and seems to be getting within a reasonable amount of time.
Knack is being made by the Japan Studio. It seems to be aimed more at the west tough.

I think he means that recently sony seems to be making all the right moves and after how many mistakes theve made this gen it is kind of exciting to think the sleeping giant seems to be waking up and getting their shit together.
Just a reorganization of their resources. This might help to cut down some of the upper management structure and consolidate everything under one roof. Plenty of companies do this to help save money when their expenses grow to large or the company is in some sort of financial pressure.

Square-Enix turned out to be a funny one.
That was nicely done.

Good news. SCE Asia were absolutely terrible at everything! I wonder what do they even do in their HK office.

SCE Asia has already been trying their hand at offering support and publishing deals to up and coming developers in the region, leading to games like Page Chronica from Singapore and Invincible Knight from Taiwan. So I guess we might see more of that?
