Arguments like this are so reductive.

Sony could have screwed up too, but they didn't. Sony did a better job at courting devs. They did a better job at looking outside the established gamer demographic. They actually bothered with EU as a market. 

Yeah, apparently all of PlayStation's success is the result of luck and competitors screwing up.

In the end, we're only capable of recognizing certain doings as wrong/fails/screw ups because someone (in this case PlayStation) came along and did things differently. People act like PlayStation had an unfair advantage and that they were told how to avoid screwing up. No, they simply made better choices.
