Sony don't seem all that concerned. They realize there's still time. Historically, the big guns have come out 1-2 years after the system's release. They never saw the need to launch with a killer app.

Every third party game can't be bad, but quality or not, people buy Nintendo systems for Nintendo games. Always have. Always will. Granted, this has been much more pronounced during the past decade.


If you're gonna talk about history about consoles in Japan it isn't going to do anything to help sony.  In Japan once a console gets a lead it just tends to increase exponentially to no end.  Japan is very trend based and when these trends get set early it is extremely difficult to turn them around.  Historically Japan only supports 1 console at a high level with 1 or 2 others getting 4-6 million.  Look at the sales the last 2 weeks, Wii outsold PS3 by something like 7 or 8 to 1.  Wii has won Japan, but it's gonna be a much longer race for north america and europe.
