Shu Yoshida: "Console Debut" means it may come to other consoles in the future after PS4

English, how does it work?

Some games are being developed for the PS4. But there's no deal ("moneyhat") with Sony, so these publishers can do late ports if they so desire, nothing stopping them. Good guy Sony making sure other people occasionally have something to play.

Sony and MS also pay for timed exclusivity which also translates into the same thing

Not in this case, as I said there is no deal. They don't have to pay cause third parties use the ps4 as lead platform and will think about ports later. If there was an actual deal they'd be timed exclusives, not debuts.
