Sorry to burst the bubble, but regardless of overal sales, no matter what microsoft has still won second place for the generation from a business standpoint. Sony is only ahead because of Japan really. Japan is an enormously different market than North America and Europe which are relatively similar by comparison. To get the japanese market they need to make a slew of exclusives which eat up their own profits just making them. Not to mention many of those games never leave Japan. I would rather be in Microsoft's position than I would Sony's. No matter what happens, microsoft has all kinds of money coming in from a subscription based online service, the most sales from multiplatform games, as well as the most sales for first party games.

No offense but, first, you don't know what the numbers are from a business standpoint and, secondly, nobody says that Nintendo won last gen from a business standpoint - they say the PS2 won.
