That was because Nintendo went behind Sonys back on the deal. They were trying to eat both pies.

But also because Sony was trying to claim a bigger slice of the pie from CD game sales. It’s both companies being shitty.

Sony came up with the idea of the disc drive, it only made sense them wanting more profit from the part they designed. It was just a disgusting move by Nintendo to go behind their backs and close a deal with another company, while not telling Sony.
