I think if Apple bought Sony the gaming industry would take a pretty large hit initially. For quite a few years it would struggle as Apple will try to change things (some type of new pricing model, new online market, etc.). Apple followers will invest in these changes and the existing gaming audience would be split amongst Microsft and Nintendo while many others abandom the industry altogether. Eventually Apple's new ways would catch on with the execs at the other gaming companies due to its success, where they too will make changes and annoy the existing gaming audience. The Nintendo and MS loyalists will also flee from the industry having those companies struggle to stay viable in the world of console gaming. Things won't return to normal until a new company (or Nintendo) comes back with the old gaming ways and brings back all us veterans, united once and for all.
