I see only two major mistakes.

Poisonous arrogance around the time of the launch of the console would be one.
The other would have to be the idea that an all-in-one console disguised as a trojan horse for Blu-ray and costing 599 dollars would sell like hotcakes.

Both reasons are intertwined and have lead to the present day situation.
