Sony Scores Big Win For PlayStation 5 After Poaching Yoshi From Nintendo With 10-Year $400 Million Contract OurAnnualYear2019

NEW YORK—Adding the big-name dinosaur to an already stacked lineup featuring stars like Nathan Drake and Ratchet, Sony scored a big win for the upcoming PlayStation 5 Wednesday by poaching Yoshi away from Nintendo with a record-breaking 10-year, $400-million contract. “This is a huge day for Sony.

Yoshi is one of the most talented and popular characters out there, and we are thrilled by his decision to join the Playstation family,” said Sony Interactive and Entertainment president and CEO Jim Ryan, who revealed Yoshi was drawn to the world-class facilities at Sony’s American headquarters in New York and is eager to start the next phase of his career, one where he didn’t have to work in the shadow of Mario or Link.

There’s an alternate universe somewhere where this actually happens with Microsoft and Rare in getting Donkey Kong since that’s what they actually wanted

Get paid, my prehistoric brother. Eat them all.

That’ll blow right through Sony’s salary cap.

Sony is the real savage here. Didnt even wait for free agency to snatch the mean green tongue sticking machine.

Lined up for Bloodborne 2 apparently

they just paid yoshi's taxes.

I mean... that's basically what happened with Rareware...

That's what you get for tax evasion!

we all know they poached him to cook the books

Yoshi for GTA6

Finally. Maybe they'll finally retire Kratos. He's had a good run, but people need a little cheer their lives, not brooding vengeful tirades.

Next year's draft is going to include baby mario. Who will win?

Hopefully he stays healthy. He can really help them overcome the hump

All that for a tax evader 😔

They should have offered more...lol

Mario is going to have to ride Toads from now on.

Contracts. I’m so excited.

Can’t wait to see what Insomniac, Kojima, and Naughty Dog do with the Yoshi rights.

Bargain

why am i laughing so hard at this 😂😂😂😂😂

pfft Mike Trout still king

Damn Yoshi getting that LeBron sized 💰

He’s potentially a 5 WAR player. Totally worth it.

Devastating. TheMattBungard

They overpaid. Yoshi is a liability in the field. Link & Mario are the real advanced analytic all-stars.

If he gets Toad to follow look out....

I didn’t read who this was from when I got the notification and I was freaking out lol
