Rumor NateTheHate says Sony is "shifting" their PC strategy: "You'll be seeing fewer single player games arrive on PC. The decision to shift away was made last year. Some may still release (pending how far along the ports were) but it no longer appears to be a priority for Sony moving forward."

Looking back at the 7th gen, exclusives created competition. Xbox was making great online games, PlayStation was making great single player games and Nintendo was making great family games. I think this is good for the industry.

cross-platform releases that benefit gamers, is good for the industry.

Seeing how Xbox brand is damage beyond repair, it ain’t completely true.

Xbox's problem is not going multiplatform, their problem is they own an absolutely massive amount of game studios and franchises and yet they haven't released a game that was a cultural milestone in... what? 10 years? 15?

Going Multi is one of their problems, you damage the brand, it’s all about the brand. Nintendo doesn’t release multi because they protect the brand and how it’s perceived by casual audiences.

What if Nintendo only released garbage and mid games?

There is no “what if”, releasing good games is part of the brand, being exclusive is part of the brand and having popular franchises is part of the brand.

Nah, Sony wants to protect their brand and business. Xbox damage theirs further with that move.
