    I believe Sony said that it is because of the third party games. If the big JP titles are going to be late there won't be as many launch titles likely to draw an audience unless they delay.

    This is it. The 2 major JPN oriented games (one of which IS XIV:ARR) would NOT be ready until 2.22.14 so it got pushed back until then.

    Cause JPN developers are still fine with PS3 (their kinds of games don't really call for stronger tech atm). Therefore, Sony decided to delay the console in JPN until the developers are ready to make games on it.
