Sony would have got the licensing rights to every game and would have got a very large cut of the every game sold on the Super Disc format. Some lawyer looked over the contract after they signed it and that's why Nintendo backed out. Its not like it was all on Nintendo, it does seem like a very Sony thing to think they have full control over their formats.
