I agree with that, that was also my point though. Sony are making an effort, just not the one tbone was referring to. Specifically, 1st party developed games.

After Killzone Mercenary and Tearaway's sales, I can't say I blame them for giving up on their own IPs, they clearly don't hold enough clout.

If Nintendo was any other company, their 1st party content would suffer similarly on a handheld. (I doubt Gears of War and Halo would shift many Xbox Portables, if one existed for example).

I guess this is why 1st party has become such a key issue with Nintendo fans. 3rd party is by far a bigger driver of hardware and software sales on their rivals.
