Its because of last Gen. All the media outlets were calling the GameCube a failure since it was in 3rd place, yet they called the Xbox a success even thou there was a small difference between the two. I don't know really who to blame for all this 1st, 2nd, 3rd crap. But it all really seemed to have come from the marketing team behind the Playstaion. They made a big stink out of how well they did with the PSOne and then the same with the PS2. And I wouldn't put it pass them since they were the same people who started the whole "Nintendo is kiddy" BS. We never had to deal with 1st, 2nd or 3rd back during the NES/Master System era or even the SNES/Gen era. Sure their was competition between the systems but no one was making a huge deal out of being #1 and we weren't screaming that one system was a failure because it wasn't out selling the other.
