How can Sony (home) consoles sell more on average than Nintendo (home) consoles if Sony steals Nintendo's ideas?

 If they didn't only Sony would have disks instead of cartridges (I assume they were 1st),

Technically, Sony was 9th.  Several consoles before the PS used optical media such as the Sega Genesis/Megadrive CD add on, Sega Saturn, 3DO, Neo Geo CD, Amiga CD, CD-i, TurboGrafix/PC Engine CD, etc...

So you make an illogical and obviously baiting thread based on 5-10 people's illogical notions?

Don't take dumb and then make it dumber.  It's just bad form.

There is nothing illogical about it, as I just explained. I have personally seen about 5-10 people like this, but there might be a lot more out there in hiding waiting for this thread to explain their reasoning. Now you would do well to explain why this is a "baiting" thread any more than other threads that ask a specific section of the forums a question.

It's illogical because sales are not a direct correlation of innovation nor copying innovation.  You know this.  High sales are the end result of many disparate quanta.  You're baiting and goading people with this thread based on the illogical notions of a few people with a premise you damn good and well will be controversial due to the underlying subject matter of innovation copying.

This is almost callow in its tranparency.
