Since you've relieved Sony of the burden of actually executing on their promises, who could argue that Sony's fantasy is inferior to Microsoft and Nintendo's reality-encumbered online features?
I will make this point, though. I'm not convinced that features like a share button or Miiverse are actually substantial competitive advantages in game consoles. Much like graphics, I think online and social features see diminishing returns once you go past certain core features such as online matchmaking, voice chat, and connecting with friends. Miiverse is fun, but I can't ever see myself factoring it into my purchase, or even usage, decisions.
