It's good because

1) Nintendo systems will see these games

2) Sony has been too complacent, and this gen from them has been boring so far. They need to become like Nintendo and focus on their 1st party games. The rest is gravy on top.

They don't have any trouble with that. 

Regarding complacency, I disagree. They just released a new VR device, a pro controller, a gaming monitor, and plenty of games up to this point. If that stuff is of no interest to you, I get that, but they've not just sat around doing nothing. Both them and Nintendo have knocked it out of the park with what they've got and their commercial reception is a testament to that. 

Also, Microsoft acquiring Acti isn't going to move the needle. COD is remaining multiplatform (the only place this could have had a seriously negative impact on them). The purchase is not about exclusive games because there is a far bigger target and mindset at play.

It's a positive impact for Nintendo. Haven't seen a COD game in years on the system.

Pro controller that costs just under half the console in AUS 339 vs 699 is hardly a selling point and a new monitor cool but not something most people are dying to upgrade when they have a perfectly fine working TV.

Innovation I meant more from games perspective, they used to be more exciting in the past now I don't know maybe I am getting older. Maybe cause we used to get E3 and it was all in your face and was more hype for games now it just feels flat. Hell maybe cause the bar was so high for so long, got used to that feeling and now it feels underwhelming, as looking for the next level of high.

I agree in terms against Microsoft they are way ahead, but well no one really expect much from Microsoft so bar is low anyway lol.
