"In an article posted today on Nikkei Net, Kiyoshi reports that Sony
hasn't been able to provide key PS3 development tools to game makers in
a timely fashion. As a result, Shin said, most companies haven't even
been able to go into full-scale development for PS3 games, even though
it's already spring, which was Sony's initial launch period for the
console. Nikkei Net says Shin pointed out that the PS3's compiler,
which converts programs into a language that the console can
understand, wasn't released until very recently.

Shin speculates that Sony may be able to prepare a lot of Blu-ray
movies for the PS3 launch, but the launch might lack on games.
Furthermore, he thinks the chances are high that launch titles for the
PS3 may look inferior when compared to Xbox 360 games.

Shin also comments that the Revolution could mean major competition for
the PS3 in Japan. He said that the console is known for its friendly
development environment that inherits the GameCube's and that there is
a possibility of its launching before the PS3."
