===Background=== | |||
Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE formerly "Sony Network Entertainment" and "Sony Computer Entertainment") was founded and established on November 16, 1993 in Tokyo, Japan as a subsidiary of Sony to create the PlayStation video game console. The PlayStation was the result of Nintendo and Sony teaming up to try to create a CD add-on for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES for short). However, the deal said that Sony must license the SNES-CD games and not Nintendo. This betrayed Nintendo, and they asked Philips to create the add-on, and the deal was accepted. Once Sony heard about Nintendo and Philips' collaboration which gave Sony "a taste of their own medicine", they went on to independently develop a CD-based game console, the PlayStation. It was a success, leaving Sony to make more PlayStation consoles (including the PlayStation 2, which has gone on to become the best-selling console of all time, at sales of over 150 million units worldwide), even a portable console called the PSP. Philips went on to create four video games for their CD-i, since they still had some of the licenses from Nintendo's characters. They continued to make a successful line of consoles and handhelds, such as the PlayStation 3, the PlayStation Vita, and most recently the PlayStation 4. In April 2016, Sony Computer Entertainment and Sony Network Entertainment was restructured and reorganized into Sony Interactive Entertainment, carrying over the operations and primary objectives from both companies. | |||
