Sony has done a lot of backtracking lately, which isn't necessarily a bad thing - it's a sign that the company is mature enough to learn from its mistakes, or maybe Sony is just afraid of the ensuing backlash had it pushed through with some of its initial decisions.

One of the biggest examples of Sony backtracking is on its earlier announcement to close down the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita digital storefronts.

In case you missed it, earlier this year Sony announced that it was going to close down the digital storefronts for its legacy consoles, the PS3, PS Vita, and PSP.

Then a few weeks later, Sony changed its mind. While Sony did confirm that it was still going to push through the closure of the PSP digital storefront, it seemed to have learned enough not to make its extensive PS3 and Vita library inaccessible just yet.
