Well, that is quite a logical leap and an astute one. Imagine this:
1. Nintendo 3DS drops in the US during the 2010 holiday season or March 2011 at the latest.
2. Meanwhile, Sony is spending quite a bit of R&D and marketing on their 3D television that require glasses.
3. Consumers buy the Nintendo 3DS in droves, become fascinated with the 3D without glasses, and wonder why Sony is pedaling 3D televisions upwards to $3k
4. The media reports on the Nintendo 3DS ushering in a new, glassless 3D experience.
5. Sony is proverbially screwed.
I see this happening and what this call for collaboration really then is, the worst form of corporate espionage masked under the form of collaboration.
Sony is done.
