Has any console maker came back from 3rd place to 1st or 2nd?

So basically history has proven that a console that is last at the begining has no chance in hell to come back in second, or let alone first.

I think the PS3 will catch up but won't surpass the 360 numbers. 360 and PS3 are going to be like how the Xbox and Gamecube were last gen.
