@Gallowhand It's going to be about who can appeal to the dev's more then anything. If the rumors are true about Microsoft then they are making the OS a lot more obtrusive then Sony's which they said (and the rumors were true about Sony) that they didn't want the OS to get in the way of development.
Personally I think Japanese dev's are going to dump Microsoft. The only reason Japanese dev's made games for the 360 was because it was popular in the West.
Sony released the Dualshock with rumble and analog sticks a year and a half after Nintendo created the rumble pack for N64 and released their controller which was the first to have an analog stick.
Even Sega beat Sony and released their Sega Saturn 3D control pad before them.
It was actually being developed for the N64 DD but because Nintendo was taking too long to launch the add-on they moved development over to the PlayStation.
