Without Final Fantasy 7 and other prominent franchises flipping, there's no way Sony would have won the gen. NintendI could have still messed up 3rd party relationships with their arrogant approach at the time, but the storage medium was a huge obstacle for many 3rd party devs (which made up the vast majority of "Sony's" hits). Watched a Dreamcast documentary two days ago where a Sega employee commented on how crazy it was that Sony took that gen without contributing hit game of their own - it was the outflow of Square, Capcom, Eidos, and more that made Playstation what it was, rather than Sony leading by example.
