I said the PS2 won because of games. But do you remember the first year it had? Was kinda shitty.
In comparison. But it got the momentum. It got in peoples house., people bought the system. It got games. Over and done, boom market leader.

Sony has no media format or center to utilize here. A chromecast can do more than it can do media wise.

Do you know why Sony's handheld strategy sucks? Because its a console strategy for a handheld. Its a very multimedia centric device with few "system defining" games and million sellers.Half of its purpose is made defunct by phones. Also memory cards.  Interestingly Sony software did terrible on the PSP, but they have a much higher attache rate on the Vita)

Do you know why I said Nintendo will be fine? Because they always give the consumer what they didnt know they wanted.

Do you know how to use the "quote" button ? (Your driving me insane for me trying to respond to you.) 

I agree with your reason of why sony's handheld sucks and that's because sony can not compete with nintendo in that segment and what you said about their games is true. Sony needs a blue ocean strategy for that type of market because they can't just depend on the brand itself to sell.

No, Nintendo doesn't always give what the consumer wants. They gave us a successor to a gamecube instead of a wii. The wii u is not similar at all in any respects to the wii. The wii u is competing with the PS4 and the xbone directly! What nintendo didn't realize is that they were doing a red ocean not a blue ocean and therefore nintendo (the minnow) is left to compete with the xbone (the shark) and the PS4 (the giant man eating squid).
