Sony ready for 2010

Almost every year is said to be SONY's year, which all so far have been unsuccessful. Although SONY do have big plans for 2010 and aren't ready to stop after there enormous year of 2009.

An interview with Sony's head of PlayStation marketing, John Koller, revealed Sony were going to improve on some key points of the PlayStation.

These quotes below are said by John Koller on different topics.
PSN:

John Koller I think the PSN is going to end up being a critical part of what we do in 2010. The PSN is really a big pillar where we’ll go. Those are going to be three big pillars as we go into 2010, motion control gaming, 3D gaming, and the PlayStation Network.

John Koller I think the areas that are going to be really critical to our success will be family games, as well as shooters and sports games. Those are going to be the areas that will really define success, because they’re areas that quite honestly, I think Project Natal and the Wii are going to have trouble matching, from a differentiation standpoint.

John Koller With the backwards compatibility issue, we’re at a point now in the cycle of the PlayStation 3 that there’s so many PS3 games available, so many strong PS3 games, that it’s really become far less of an issue than I think a lot people — particularly the media — are asking about. In all of our studies, we’ve noticed that it’s fallen off the map in terms of demand. There’s not many requests for it much at all anymore. There’s really a high level of satisfaction on the PlayStation 3 for PS3 games themselves.

John Koller There’s no plans in place right now to be changing the current model of the PS3, since we just launched this one. We’re getting this into market and obviously getting a lot of traction. That said, in terms of Sony as a broader entity, we’re built on innovation and a lot of what you’ll see in terms of changes to the PS3 are going to be done through firmware for the foreseeable future.
