No, Sony unlike Nintendo and Microsoft is a multi-media, multi-national conglomerate. The PS3 with Blu Ray was intentionally designed to push Blu Ray once Blu Ray became popular. It has been 4 years and Blu Ray is not catching on like DVDs did in the late 1990s and early 2000s...
You can see Sony is not learning their lesson by pushing 3D games for the PS3, which conveniently coincides with their 3D television business. In the next year, you will start to see more and more PS3 games, especially Move games touting 3D capability.
Sony in their behavior has not shown any sign they have learned their lesson. If anything, their current behavior is indicative of a company who, at the top, views the PS3 more than just a console. The PS3 to Sony means increased Blu Ray sales and increased 3D television sales. Sony with their diverse lineup of multi-media products will always put out the most expensive console because they are banking on the future, whether their vision of the future becomes reality a year from now or 10 years from now.
