I dont see what the suprise is. I learned this lesson back with the PS2.

The PS2 had a terrible first year aswell and it sold like hot cakes. The Dreamcast had a bunch of exclusives both great looking and innovative and the general gamer pooped on it.

This doesnt surprise me in the least. I already know this happens with Playstation systems. SEGA and Nintendo made an almost irreversable blunder with the 32 bit era. PSOne was the savior and ever since then the consumer throws its faith behind its savior.

The PS3 was a blunder, but by sticking to it until the next generation, Sony managed to keep that goodwill.
