Capcom and Konami killed themselves. You can't blame Sony for that. Where was Megaman or Breath of Fire oer Contra on PS3 or 360 or Wii? 7th Gen lasted over 8 years. Where the hell did Breath of Fire or Zombies ate my Neighbors go? Sony didn't tell Capcom to lust after Call of Duty dollars and completely destroy Resident Evil trying to get into the wallets of the ADHD mouth breather casuals. These companies hurt themselves by forgetting their own niche roots, disrespecting the fan base that made them what they are, and attempting to chase after their piece of the Call of Duty and Angry Birds pies.
They screwed themselves by ditching their best friends to try to fit in with the new kids on the block when gaming went mainstream* and now they are trying to crawl back and say they are sorry years later. Mainstream = the point when gaming became "cool" and not a "kids toy" and everyone had to have a polished and waxed Xbox or Playstation on their living room table.
I lost all hope in Konami when they said mobile phones are the future of gaming a few days ago.
Square would also be dead by now as well if not for FF XIV ARR being the biggest comeback in gaming history. Where was Secret of Mana on PS3 or Wii? That wasn't Nintendo or Sony's fault.
