Here the numbers hardly mind shatering..... Little Big Planet was a new IP that created alot of buzz on PS3, But it's hardly a new IP anymore and on a much lager install base the game sold just over a million in it's release window. it's a niche product I would put it in the same category as Pikmin..... will interest less then 20% of the console base.
PS4 Install base will be well over 15 million by the end of the year.... I'm just saying that two years ago when Sony were planning for the PS4 they would of secured exclusive for Holiday 2014 and more than just Samurai WArrior 4, LBP3 and Driveclub as exclusive titles.
It's not like they release a slew of exclusive at launch .... or post lauch.
