It is because of the PS2 that the PS3 is the first console ever to sell over 21 million units at a $400 price point. Marketshare is irrelevant this generation, the Wii has already won it. What has Sony lost other than marketshare? They still get all of the third party games that the 360 has, in fact they are getting some third party exclusives, and they still publish outstanding first party titles. So the 360 sells 50k more than the PS3 in March, big deal. MS generated half the console revenues than the PS3. In 2009 the 360 fans can enjoy their minor marketshare victories, and the PS3 fans will enjoy an outstanding gaming experience. That doesn't sound like an epic fail to me.

LOL.
How about all its profit from the PS2, PSP. How about all its third party exclusives. Thats like saying Intel goes from dominating AMD with 70% market share to 20% marketshare+ losing tons of money Or IPOD going from 70% marketshare to 20% and losing tons of money. Sadly IPod makes money while PS3 loses. How is that not a fail???
So Dreamcast, GC and Xbox owners enjoyed their gaming experience too. And how is outselling your competition by over 8million Minor??
Atleast you admit that the only reason the PS3 could sell so much is due to the PS1/2 and its Playstation brand recognition.
