Microsoft wants to take out sony, then they want to go against nintendo(but it will never happen).

As long as Nintendo never goes after the desktop market. Microsoft will never try to go after Nintendo the same way they went after Sony. Sony was a threat to Microsoft's bottom line, this is why they are in the console market, anything they make off the console would be considered gravy. They have no intentions of sticking it out in the console market if Sony backs off the PC replacement idea.

Are you kidding me!!! I remember Sony saying somthing like that too (replacing the PC and all that). Could this be the reason why Microsoft is in the console business? Wow

 No I'm not kidding and this info can be found all over the net.  It started back at the end of the PS1 era leading up to the PS2.  The original Xbox was used as a way to combat the encroaching Sony threat.  It really didn't help that Sony was trying to push Linux in a bad way back then (and still is to a lesser degree).
