Sony is doing serious public relations damage control in terms of their PS3 console after NPD's latest April numbers were released. While the 360 just hit 11 million sales and the Wii is already approaching 7-8 million sales, the PS3 is still fighting to get to 3.5 million (even that number is debatable.). This is corresponding with the Nintendo DS taking the market very clearly over Sony's PSP poor sales.
In "damage control", Sony President Kaz Hirai has gone on public record today stating that the PS3 will have at least 380 new titles for their console by next year. 200 of those titles are planned as box retail titles and another 180 PSN titles.
This is weeks after 3rd party developers like Capcom started to jump ship with some of their exclusive titles opting instead to design Devil May Cry 4 for the 360, Wii and PS3. Other 3rd party developers have been whispering rumors about the same fall out effect.
