A better question: how is it a bad thing?

Eight Days got cancelled for this. Good sales send the message that it was the right thing to do. What do you think Sony will do? You better be prepared to kiss your hardcore games goodbye and get hyped for Motion Party 2, 3 and 4.

@Carl: Why would you want the wand to succeed? What good would it do for you?

Errmmm.....first of all, Eight Days was postponed, not cancelled. Also, why would "hardcore" games go away because of the success of one franchise? If you've been paying attention, Sony doesn't do one type of game, but many.

Sony immediately works on sequels if something works, just look at the neverending stream of Singstar and Buzz games. Then there's the cost factor. A game like EyePet is much, much cheaper to develop than something like Uncharted 2 and therefore it's far more profitable. Why should Sony keep making titles like Killzone, if they are far more successful with those simple games?

yep. look at nintendo. once wii fit sells 20 mil, you can kiss zelda and metroid goodbye.
