I honestly thought this was Sony's plan of attack for this gen.

Make Indie game developers the middle tier companies from the PS2 era, that vanished from last gen. By keeping a stream of new content, it will whet the appetites of consumers, and pacify them enough if AAA titles are ever delayed.

Up until they made the announcement awhile back that they were going to invest more into the games division. I thought they wanted to cut back on some of their studios since Shuhei admitted that most of their games while being praised artistically, do not sell well.

This strategy seems to be working for most of the hardcore, but maybe with the recent dip in sales in the US, the general public is not buying it anymore.

I think Sony will be fine, this is more of a speedbump in their plans than a road block. No doubt though they are going to lose ground to Microsoft this Holiday.

Also it's a shame that Zelda got delayed for the WiiU. It would have made the holiday numbers way more interesting.
