SONY did the right think with GT5

[Reasonable]

I think, as I've noted in other threads, that (assuming GT5 could have launched in 2009 anyway from a development point of view) having GT5, FFXIII and Slim all hit in one big mass would be overkill, particularly in Japan.

Sony has enough titles I would argue, with FFXIII sure to regain them some marketshare in Japan and the Slim and new price point likely to keep sales lively, to push GT5 along with other titles to early 2010.

That way they give each big hitter the chance to do it's thing without affecting other Sony titles and give themselves more chance of an extended run of good sales.
