Why were they getting bad contracts? Any idea of why a major console maker couldn't get a good deal from potential partners?

You do realize there is PC besides consoles right? PC, with its huge age, dissemination and absence of generational borders, has always set the standard.

Evidence, please.

This comment has potential. How do you define the norm?
