I generally think this is the last generation that I bought all the consoles on launch. Why? Four letters: RROD.
I fail to see what the OP is getting at. I think the best thing to happen to Nintendo is the "tarnishing" of the PS brand...but I fail to see how MS has capitalized on this at all (in comparison to Nintendo). They managed to snatch some exclusives and make some go multiplat - fair enough - but it is Nintendo that is truly reaping the benifits here.
The PS brand remains strong and could make a comeback for all we know. Don't forget that Nintendo is dominating right now after N64 and Cube being under 20% market share.
