Number of consoles in last place:

Nintendo: 1, Sony: 1, Microsoft: 0

 

 Actually, no. The first Xbox ended its short life netting Microsoft a total profit of....  over minus 4.5 BILLION dollars. The gamecube sold a little less yes, but Nintendo didn't lose money or nowhere near that kind of money.

Ask Microsoft what would they have preffered :  finishing in a prettier " 2nd place in market-share" selling some thousand units more but with a loss of over 4.5 billions or finishing "last" selling a little less but staying in the black or very close to it?

though decision, right? NOT!
