I know what NGage is. I kinda wanted one too, if only for Xanadu Next. But it flopped immediately, got turned into a software platform for their phone line in general, then got killed off entirely. iPod Touch/Phone is like the opposite, it's been dragged almost unexpectedly into the gaming market... but it's most certainly a gaming platform at this point. Moreso than NGage ever managed sadly.
Can't find SCE employee counts there either. :/
I did find total assets on Wiki though... SCE = 900 billion yen, Nintendo = 1.8 trillion yen.

I know some people who have iPhone and none of them use it for gaming. Only minority of the iPhone/iPod Touch owners ever buy even a single game for it. iPod touch/iPhone might be have become gaming platform (well, you could say even regular cellphones are gaming platform just as well) but their gaming software revenue is tiny compared to any console at the moment.

Oh, I have an iPhone and I don't even use it for gaming. But you're dead wrong on it's market, the app store is HUGE and games are actually the driving part of that. iPhone's games market is definitely bigger than some of the current platforms on market.
