Nintendo had a console (Gamecube) that only sold 22 million consoles but was able to sell 77 million copies of the 45 1st party games they released, so it made a small profit. Lets just say every Gamecube had a pack in game, that means Nintendo sold no less then 55 million 1st party games.
Sony had a console (PS3) that sold 80+ million consoles but was only able to sell 124 million copies of 103 1st party titles they releaded and it ended up taking a loss. Atleast 20 million of those PS3's came with a packed in 1st party game, which would mean Sony sold about 104 million 1st party games.
The lack of interest in Sony's 1st party software is why the Vita has really failed as well. Pokemon X/Y has outsold every 1st party Vita game combined. Nintendo's software alone will keep them in business forever, or at the very least until their software quality goes to shit.
