I'm a Sony fanboy, and this article didn't make me angry. Motion control is the least of my concerns when it comes to gaming. I'd much prefer to continue to see great games. They aren't behind or at a lower level as far as hardware is concerned, they just haven't been pumping out a new version of PSP every six months like Nintendo and the DS. Yet, like I said motion control and mobile gaming aren't for me. Love being a console gamer. So, I can understand that they haven't done much for advancing and evolving the hardware since the PSP and PS3, they are still near/at the top of the pile with tech specs. 

The PSP has had 4 revisions like the DS has. What are you talking about?

Also, they are riding on the 3D bandwagon forcing it's own fanbase to buy 3D $3,000 Tvs and wants the Wii market to upgrade to their Move MotionPlus remote. They aren't failing, they are just trying to catch up.

I'm not discounting the PSP has had remodels but they also aren't producing the older models, correct if I'm wrong but the original DS is still on the market as are all of it's upgrades. My point is that that's too many on the market at once. I'll concede it if they were the same. 3D isn't really 'new' technology, though, it's just chic technology. I would love it if Sony saw the market turn against them on  3D. It's too gimmicky. It's semantics whether they are behind on hardware. They are behind on new hardware, just not technically. Not trying to put down Nintendo or anything, and like I said, I don't do mobile gaming or know much about it, so you guys win with that argument. As long as we keep getting awesome games, we can all be happy.
