1st Party cant sustain a console, especially given how much manpower and time high end HD development takes. We're still not at GT5, Trico or God of War 3, games that were started near or prior to the launch of the machine. On the 3rd party front we have the likes of Final Fantasy 13. Once these games FINALLY come out, they go back to being tied up for YEARS.
Even with Nintendo's shorter cycles 1st party is not enough.
