"What makes you think Sony aren't going to "do a thing"".

really?really?really?really?really?really?really?really?

you can't possibly have understood that, you must be trolling. I'll draw for you regardless:

his stance: sony NEVER HAS TO DO A THING (=/= won't do a thing) to win, victory is always theirs. But nintendo only has a chance if they get lucky and score a big hit.

do you understand now how nonsensical that way of thinking is?

Calm down. Where did he say Sony "never has to do a thing"? You're just putting words in his mouth at this point.

he says nintendo needs a hit to suceed and acts as if sony doesn't have to do a thing. I'm not putting words on anyone's mouth.

He was saying Nintendo needs a "catch" similar to what the Wii had with motion controls, and it's not like he hasn't got anything to back up his statement, current Wii U sales agree with him. When did he say it wouldn't succeed without "a hit" either? He just said it would be difficult to win this generation.

As for acting as if Sony do not have to do anything, he did not explicity say that either, although he didn't do much wrong by not mentioning any steps that Sony will have to take to make the PS4 a success. So far, Sony have done almost everything right with the PS4, they've courted Indie and 3rd party developers, they've developed a powerful yet small and cheap console and they've handled PR pretty well. Once again, pre-order numbers justify his assumption. 3rd party support basically guarantees that the PS4 will be somewhat a success anyway, the same applies to Xbox One, hence why most people still believed it would sell reasonably well despite the PR and policy cock-ups.
