What if Sony never entered the console market?

Atari and Sega might still be making consoles, but Nintendo would still be number 1(which would have been great). There wouldn't have been that push for optical media and DVD's would maybe be another Laserdisc(which would have been bad)

Sega probably, but Atari no. They were already completely irrelivant and on life support by the time the PS came out. Competition didn't kill Atari. Atari killed Atari.
