While this is just spin it's true. Sony no doubt spent a ton more than Nintendo hyping the PS3 but Wii still left it in the dust. To me an early reveal signifys weakness not strength. As if they are afraid of being overshadow by MS new system at E3.

No. Revealing first puts Sony 1 step ahead of Microsoft. If they are launching first then even more so.

Revealing first means Sony have their plans in place while Microsoft is still trying to piece theirs together.

Not necessarily. They might have a plan, but it doesn't mean it's a good one. I still remember when Sega announced the Saturn at $399 and instead of going with their planned September release they pulled a sudden it's available now. Unfortunately alienating certain stores and having no 3rd party games as devs expected the later release date.

Sony then came up after and just said $299... And it was over for the Saturn.

Announcing first is not always best.
