I don't think Nintendo can lose. It might not sell the most consoles or software. But it is profitable now and for the forseeable future. Worst case scenario is they will make billions of dollars in profit this generation.

That's a REALLY good point, and describes what Nintendo is about to a tee. Unlike Sony/MS, they have to make money (in games) to survive. They aren't too fussed about what MS/Sony do - if anything, they want them to (at least partially) succeed - as it builds the industry (and competition is good).

Best-case scenario - make tens of billions of dollars (per year), and dominate for the next 20 years ;)

NOTE - I don't believe for a second that Sony has lost (yet). Its just that the signs are not good at the moment. Just like MS with the Xbox, then can always decide to lose lots more cash (short-term anyway), and take the fight up to MS/Nintendo with dual price cuts to the PSP & PS3. And there is always a chance that one of their internal titles does blow everyone away, and drives sales.
