The PS4 is not selling this well on just hype. It's a combination of things. That's pretty obvious. The PS2.
It takes years to build a sizable game library and it sold well before it's game library was large. 60 million shipped in it's first 3 years. 100 million shipped by it's 5th year. After that it took 7 years to move 55 million. More consoles were sold in it's first half when it's game library was the smallest than when it's game library was it's largest.
The actual golden rule has always been the promise of future software will push hardware.
Sony doesn't need pressure to deliver quality software. It will deliver it regardless.

Sony is a corporation .... their main goal is the same has all other company, maximize shareholders value.
If a game is lacking in content and is about to miss a release windows. If it not broken they will release the game and fix it with patches and add future content with paid DLC. If game give 15 hours vs 20 hours of content Sony will receive the same revenue with the 15 hours of content.
The PS4 is so popular that you will get diminishing returns bases on increasing profit. While the Gaming division is actually doing good, sony stock and overall is not doing so good, there is increase pressure from share holders to increase revenues.

So because Sony is a corporation, they have to shaft gamers to bring more revenue in?
