It's more that Sony has shifted strategy when they changed focus from the PS3 to the PS4. When the PS3 was out, Sony's 1st parties churned out exclusive after exclusive. Now with the PS4, Sony is playing the market like chess. With the indies and superior multiplats on their side, Sony is using those to their advantage while keeping their 1st parties for later. For instance, why would they release The Order in the midst of COD: Advanced Warfare, Far Cry 4, Sniper, and Destiny? It would be suicide. Instead, they play it smart (business-wise) by having exclusive advertising rights to Destiny and releasing a PS4 bundle.

I would say, though, that Sony is getting a bit overconfident. Their strategy is good business-wise, but not necessarily good for the gamers.
