Today was April 1st, the first day of a new term at PlatinumGames. Every year on this day, we have a company-wide meeting where the leaders of each section reflect on our successes of the past year, and on areas that can still use improvement.The meeting starts off introducing the new graduates that have joined our staff.A look at the new staff up close. One of them proudly mentioned that he comes from a small fishing community in the North of Japan, but this may just have been a load of codswallop.Next, our president Tatsuya Minami talked about layout changes within the company, staff with newly appointed positions, and approaches to improving product quality even further this year.Following the president, the head of development, Kiyohiko Sakata, talked about his plans for strengthening our development staff. He ended his speech with this year’s slogan: “Surpass this generation.” Make way into a new generation the world has yet to see.At the end of the meeting, the president awarded a plaque to each staff member entering their fifth year at the company.On February 2, 2016, PlatinumGames will celebrate its ten-year existence in the industry. Today, we discussed how we will improve our infrastructure and educate our younger staff to secure a place in the industry for the decades to come as well.Thank you for your support as always!
