For Gods Sake.

SONY did not defeat themselves.

 

No, they really did there in the beginning:

Yep. Sony had about a year of one bad blunder after another. They were out of touch with their console design, were arrogant in the way they presented it, arrogant in the way they priced it,  arrogant in dealing with 3rd parties, and ludicrous in their denials that anything was wrong.

Had Sony come out with a cheaper, more efficient console from the start, even one underpowered compared to the 360, it still might not have managed to outcompete the Wii, but it almost certainly would not be in a distant 3rd place either.
