Yoshida on PSN name changes “we don’t know if we can ever do it”

4.4
Sony is looking into one of PSN users’ most-requested features, but it may never happen.


Sony has yet to deliver a top-requested feature to PlayStation Network users everywhere; the ability to change account names. According to Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida, as of right now, the company doesn’t know if it can be done.

Here he is answering this fan question.

Microsoft offers users the ability to change their Gamertags any number of times, with the first time being free.x

It's annoying for users that have been registered from a young age.

Urf Not sure why people are having a stroke over this. If you can't pick a name and stick with it then you need to grow up. Do you change the name your parents gave you every 2 weeks when you get bored of it?


A lot of people joined when they were immature kids. I know I definitely wouldn't wanna be known as xXNoScopedUrWaifu6969Xx for the rest of my time on PSN/XBL.

To be fair alot of people were not grown up when they first created there account and looking back at it probably want to change it

-YoungSinatra They can do the hard stuff such as implementing the latest and strongest processors to their console, but can't implement an easy feature like changing your PSN? Lame. Xbox wins.
