First off the fact that Sony knocked off nintendo proves how easy it is for a market leader to fall


IMO the problem was Nintendo wasn't focussing enough on (and appealing to) mature gamers. The N64 took off much faster than the PS1 did though, IMO the real showcase and high profile title for the platform was Mario64, a launch title. I bought a N64 at launch (although I have far more fond memories of Amiga gaming the years before the Snes launched in Europe, I did love Super Mario World on the Snes, thus made me keep an eye out for Mario64), but lost interest eventually due to its games library from the big perspective.

IMO the GameCube looked 100% like a child orientated console. Much more so than the Snes, N64 and Wii.
