I assume you are talking about sales?
I hope it isnt actually. With the emergence of Casual gamers, for Sony to be in 1st place next gen they will have to produce a console without any passion or spirit to what currently makes them SOny.
Whether or not it is true at all times, Sony products have always been first produced with the idea that they were on the cutting edge of technology.
This is Sony, this is how consumers recognize the company, and Sony wants it this way.
They just need to find a way to blend the 2 concepts of being the best, (which I would argue they currently are) with selling the most.
This means they just need to try and keep the cost down while remaining on the technological edge (this doesnt just mean graphics) and this will not be easy.
Im sure they have a plan in place already, but will not launch at $600 like last time, but wait until the tech is more reasonable for the consumer.

I would say that’s a short-term memory plaudit. This is the first generation that a Sony console can lay stake to that claim. Did you have the same passion for Microsoft with the Xbox last generation, or Nintendo with the N64 the generation before that?
Their previous success has nothing to do with an “idea of being on the cutting edge of technology.” They achieved the dominant marketshare and reaped the rewards of third-party exclusivity.

actually not true, ps2 actually was the most powerful console when it released and it was a time where it graphical power surpassed average pc of the time by a mile.
but that changed quickly gpu got stronger and cheaper fast, gamecube and xbox released a year? after it.
