Htown said:I would guess that this is the real reason. Both Microsoft and Sony are apparently betting heavily on their new motion systems to give them something like Wii levels of success with the casual market. My guess is, with this happening right before September NPD numbers, that the Move is not doing anything near what Sony was hoping for and they want to keep that quiet so investors don't get super jumpy. (I work at an electronics chain, and it didn't seem to me that the piles of Move stuff were going anywhere fast, despite the fact that we had a prominent playable display in the middle of the store. Could be mistaken.)
Does Sony really have the money for that though? Judging from their poor advertising support and lack of exclusivity grabs, I really don't think they have that kind of money to throw around.
