Nah, they would need to sell twice the amount of software, on platforms that have 3 fold the competition.

Ahh this old myth. Care to explain why you think this would be the case?

Which part?

Why they'd need to increase their software sales.

Because they would need to give a portion of their profits to Microsoft and Sony?

From my understanding, First party games net you 60% total sale, third party net 30%.
