Does Sony win every generation by default?

It is not that easy to produce and sell stuff.
Would you have backed the kickstarter project for PSX :
"There are already two major players in that market! What does Sony got that the others don't? A DVD-player: LOL"
Would you have backed the kickstarter project for the Xbox:
"There are already two major players in that market, and a third gone bust! What does MS got that the others don't?"
Would you have backed the kickstarter project for the Wii:
"There are already two major players in that market! What does Wii got that the others don't, A waggle stick: LOL"

Why did not Philips make it in to the market, they have money and knowhow.
Why do not Valve have instant success in the market, they have knowhow.
Why does not Apple, Google, Samsung, IBM Intel, Facebook even try to get into the market, they have money and knowhow.
By the way how many would have backed a has-been coming back to his broken company who wanted to sell a portable music-player to a market that was full of similar music-players (Steve Jobs)

Do not try to make it out that success is predestined if you just do the RIGHT action.
