If I was Sony I wouldn't want this and FFXIII releasing close to each other in Japan, so I feel that's the main decision here. FFXIII this year and Slim should ensure lots of sales in Japan and GT5 will give further big boost early next year.

Of course, in West FFXIII is not exclusive, so the loss of GT5 is a bit of an issue, but I guess they feel they have a broad enough set of other titles to see them through. With the lower price if I was them I'd think about some form of family/kiddie bundle - maybe a slim with both R&C titles or something of the like.

EyePet would work well in the Kiddie Bundle you speak of too.

Yup - a good choice.  Basically, this December I think Sony has their first real chance to appeal well to the broader market that invested in PS2 previously.  Show the wands even though they're not out yet, push titles like R&C, Eyepet, etc.
