Amazon is the only company besides google and apple able to pull it off. Not because of money but the massive media industry behind them.

For example Samsung couldn't do it.

Samsung not?

Of course Samsung can.

Samsung is the main factor of Sony's downfall of the last 10 years. Samsung has been doping everything right what Sony has done wrong. Underestimating Samsung is what Sony probably has done. Samsung has overstaken Sony years ago.

You didn't read my post.

Samsung may have outdone Sony in everything hardware but it has absolutely nothing against Sony's content empire. It didn't even keep its own mobile OS. A game console is a multimedia device that needs to be supplied with exclusive content. Samsung has nothing in that regard and would have to shell out A LOT to establish something that wouldn't even come close to Sony's empire. Not to say anything about the missing server infrastructure and experience in the field.
