For a jubilee, made out of diamonds.

The rivals have always gone hand-in-hand with their associated companies for decades -- Sonic with Sega, and Mario with Nintendo. Now the blue dude's co-creator, Hirokazu Yasuhara, has joined up with Nintendo. In fact, according to Gamasutra, Hirokazu Yasuhara will be joining Nintendo's Software Technology division in Redmond, Washington. What he will be doing there is a mystery, since neither Yasuhara or Nintendo have relesed any details. Yasuhara joined Sega back in 1988, where he and Yuji Naka birthed the Sonic franchise for Genesis and Saturn. Since then, he's also worked with Naughty Dog and 2K Sports. Prior to joining Nintendo, Yasuhara worked briefly at Namco Bandai. I sense SEGA merging with Nintendo...

Just give it up, we're not letting you back in. My 3DS friendcode is actually my Pokemon SoulSilver friendcode, so I don't actually have a 3DS.

Not happening.

Still, I don't see how one person might indicate an entire company merge together. I'm assuming he hasn't been working with Sega for a while because he worked with all these other companies prior to this.

My! That's a pretty snazzy performance there! Posts: 451 Group: C Rank Knight Member #12,740 Joined: January 29, 2012 Xbox Live Gamertag: MysticShaid Wii Friend Code: I forgot...	Jeez, with all this news about Sega, I am worried. However, I still do not want to believe that Sega is down and out now because the Sonic game have all been doing very well in terms of sales. Maybe this does not mean anything, but I am still holding on for now.

Sega, Naughty Dog, and now Nintendo. It doesn't really mean anything, it's only news because he's a figurehead of the earlier industry. People move from company to company all the time...
