I hate this whole Microsoft is using it's money and bully boy tactis to beat down Sony. As if Sony is a small company. They're a multi billion dollar conglomerate! Remember what Sony's money did to Sega? Paybacks a bitch.

What did Sony's money do? If I remember correctly poor business skills and idiotic development costs are what ran SEGA into the ground

Sega had issues with split management between North America, which had success with the Genesis, and the Japanese management that had their own ideas.  And then Sega also had success elsewhere with the Master System.  They had too many platforms, and Sony pretty much did a FUD factor on Sega, and did moneyhat to lock things down.

As time has gone on, Sony forgot its roots with the original Playstation, and managed to make bad decisions on its own.  And Nintendo has chugged along, and was lucky to nail the whole waggle thing.
