Sony will do fine.

As we all know, the PS4 is playing it dead safe. Safe specs, parts, disc format, size, and especially cost. Nothing revolutionary about it, but just a incremental improvement in all respects.

Sony is struggling to maintain profitability, and the PS4 is designed to safely guide them. If Sony recovers in the next 5 years, expect them to take more risks with their future products, like the PS5.

Almost perfect. The PS4 was designed to be the most powerful yet developer friendly console on the market which will make it a lead for multiplatform games with most devs. its exclusives will mostly have no equal on consoles. Its cost effectiveness will allow it to profit where the PS3 drained Sony from all the risk to make Blu Ray a standard format. Sony gets a portion of every Blu Ray sale as well being a leader of the Blu Ray association, which means Nintendo and Microsoft as well. Sony will most likely take a larger leap next gen. 

Yes...thanks for expanding upon my points.....Mr. Sony spokesman.
