I don't think it is all about winning with Sony anymore. Just recouperating their loses on PS3 should be considered a win, profit will be a bonus. Contrary to popular believe the PS3 is far from dead or dying, it just suffering from a serious flu.
Strategic price cuts by Microsoft as the PS3 was finding it's feet and a low entry price by Nintendo knocked them back.
The strong Yen isn't helping either. The weak pound in a strong UK console market and the euro also forecasted to nosedive at some point soon will affect all three consoles' profit/lost.
Nintendo is in the best position here as even if they up the price to counter the weakening pound/euro as they indicated they would, I don't think it would affect their sales because the wii is unique. I am not sure it is wise for the other two (definitely not sony) to follow as such. Meaning more lost for sony and microsoft.
Cash rich Nintendo and Microsoft are in a good position to counter a lot of what the recession can throw at them, I am not sure Sony is.
