Sony were planning to buy Fromsoft but after the head of PlayStation at the time saw Demon's Souls gameplay he thought the game will be a huge flop and they decided against the purchase

the way shuhei yoshida shat on the original game is unreal
>完成間近の段階でDemon’s Soulsを2時間ほどプレーしたが、2時間後にもプレーを開始した時と全く同じ場所に立ったままだった。
>「これは駄目だ。信じられないほど酷いゲームだ」と感じて、プレーを止めてしまったよ。
>I played an almost finalized version of the game for about 2 hours, but 2 hours after having started playing I was still standing there at the same location.
>"This is terrible. It's an incredibly awful game.", I thought to myself, and stopped playing.

then he ended up regretting it
>From subsequently went off to Bandai for DaS and it became a legitimately mainstream hit on the PS3 and 360, Yoshida approached Miyazaki, admitted he was wrong and commissioned From to collaborate with Japan Studio again for Bloodborne
>Demon’s Soulsの欧米販売を見送ったのは今世代最大の失態だった
>missing out on publishing Demon's Souls in the US and Europe was our biggest mistake ever this gen
>In a podcast, Shuhei Yoshida stated that FromSoftware refused to release Demon's Souls 2 after poor treatment from Sony.

It's also worth mentioning that the last we heard from Miyazaki was
>Sources state that Miyazaki and many of the seniors at From resented the Demon's Souls remake as they felt it was not true to the spirit of the original game. It is also stated by sources close to Miyazaki that he had also disliked the fact the studio had remade Shadow of the Colossus, which he felt was disrespectful to the work of Fumito Ueda whom he has previously cited as his biggest influence in game design

Now Miyazaki wants to join up with Nintendo
