I love what he's done with the hardware, but to match Nintendo's legacy you need outstanding first-party software. And Knack doesn't set a good precedent judging from the previews - it's just 'OK'.


Sony already has outstanding first party software now, unless you are just talking about the games he is working on.

They just don't sell all that much compared to Nintendo. "Legacy" needs to be not just a critical one but an cultural one - get millions of people to have it in their homes and love it.

To take the most obvious example, I know people like LBP, but it's not Mario. And LBP Kart is not Mario Kart, and PSASBR is not Smash. No one could currently say the Sony one was more influential.

LBP doesn't have the same power that Crash had; I'd say that was the closest thing they had to a Mario figure. And crash was pretty big, but of course, just like everything else- he fell into obscurity along with Sly Cooper, Ratchet and Clank, and Jak and Daxter.
