Sony has a classical jack of all trades master of none problem. The biggest issue with them is that they treat everything like a secondary product. Here are a few examples.

-first to make a commercial oled TV years before anyone else even considered bringing Oled to market. Then they just ignore the tech and now lg and Samsung are capitalizing on it as the best thing to happen to TVs.
- eyetoy, which is honestly the kinect origin story, yet they ignore the whole motion gaming tech even though they had the makings of a perfect motion gaming set up.
- xperia phones and tablets. Sony makes what is  arguably flat out the best android phones and tablets but they haven't even tried to get carrier support and don't market their devices.
- PlayStation. they are only now taking the brand as seriously as they should always have but only because it has shown that it's their strongest consumer product. and even now they are still not making the most of it.

And upcoming future missed opportunities?
- PlayStation vue. what took them so long? Sony is more entrenched in movies and tv than Microsoft, Google, apple or Nintendo. yet even now they can't get something that they are obviously poised to dominate off the ground. then they would start playing catch up to Microsoft when ms inevitably partners with sling TV.
-PlayStation now. why oh why is it still only officially on their cell phones and PS4? it should be all over the place by now. it's almost like they just don't see the potential it has.
- PlayStation share... all I will say is that if ms were the ones that were doing this and the above point, they would have marketed the hell outta it by now and made it look like they just invented oxygen.

What Sony needs to do is treat their projects like their lives depended on it. that's what everyone else does.  And their failure to do this now is why they have fallen from what'll they'll itself to be. 

Ah well, as I said before, Sony is Sony's own  worst enemy. they have never been beaten. yet they somehow find a way to keep losing and dropping the ball.
