Delaying the PS3 wouldnt have helped .The problem Sony has is that no games are being released for it in Japan ,few exclusives in NA and Europe .That and the price ,of course .The games problem comes from the fact that it is receiving ports from PC and X360 games ,and the japanese product that can differentiate it (Unknow Realms ,Ninja Gaiden Sigma ,Hot Shots Golf 5 ,My Summer Vacation 5 ,PES ,Devil May Cry 4 ,White Knight Story ,MGS IV ,Final Fantasy XIII ,XIII Versus ,Fatal Inertia ,Hundred Year War Bladestorm ,Eye of Judgement ,Tekken 6 ) is taking way too much time arriving to stores .
Games as HOt Shots GOlf and Fatal Inertia were said to be well advanced for july last year ,the issue is that with the delay of the PS3 to november and the impression they needed to refine their games to be in the tech edge many developers have adopted a wait and see approach while they develop their titles .The PS3 is suffering righ now in Japan of a software drought of high magnitude .On the other markets it simply has too few exclusive games and even the multiplattforms are only ports from the X360 .
Sony can turn the tide .For Japan they need a price drop and some good games ,for Occident they need that and some extra things (Home ,keep free online ,better Store ,exclusives ... ) .
