Sony Computer Entertainment to Unveil “PlayStation®Suite,” Delivering the World of PlayStation® to Android™ Based Portable Devices

Tokyo, January 27, 2011– Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCE) today unveiled
“PlayStation®Suite” (PS Suite), delivering the PlayStation® experience to Android™ based
portable devices*1. Through this entirely new initiative, users will be able to enjoy PlayStation
content on an open operating system for the first time in PlayStation history.

In the dramatically evolving and diversifying mobile market, the number of users who
enjoy games casually on a variety of devices including mobile phones, smart-phones and tablet
PCs, has been increasing significantly. By offering “PlayStation quality” content to this
rapidly growing market, SCE will not only deliver the PlayStation experience to a wider base
of users around the globe, but will also be able to offer game developers and publishers the
potential to further expand their business opportunities to these devices.

In providing the PlayStation experience on Android based portable devices, SCE will
commence a “PlayStation®Certified” license program for hardware manufacturers. Through
this program, SCE will offer necessary support, including development support as well as logo
licensing, to ensure the delivery of PlayStation quality experience across various devices.

On the software front, SCE plans to provide PS Suite content within this calendar year,
starting with original PlayStation games*2 (PS one® classics) that will allow users to enjoy
“PlayStation quality” gameplay on their Android based portable devices. SCE also plans to
open PlayStation®Store where users will be able to download content in an easy to use
environment, directly via the Android based portable devices. Moreover, SCE will provide a
new game development environment in an effort to ensure new and compelling content is
delivered on PS Suite, which will also offer opportunities for a wider base of developers and
publishers to further expand their business on various portable devices.

Newly developed content for PS Suite can also be enjoyed on the next generation
portable entertainment system (codename: NGP), which SCE announced today. Users who
have never experienced PlayStation content can get a taste of the PlayStation experience
through PS Suite and from there, they can enjoy the ultimate portable entertainment experience
that is only possible on NGP.

SCE will vigorously enhance the entertainment world delivering the PlayStation
experience to a wider base of users.
