It goes back to what I said a lot last gen - that while Microsoft definitely put up their best efforts, they were up against an incompetent, arrogant Sony. When both brands launch at the same time with competitive prices and/or game plans, the PlayStation will probably always be ahead, thanks to its worldwide brand name, which is bigger than any gaming brand. The US/UK/JP are the only real battlegrounds for PS vs Xbox and PS vs Nintendo. 

Well I agree but I think that Europe can also be a battleground for Nintendo Vs Sony. Nintendo was popular with the NES/SNES/WII and can be a real threat for Sony (in Europe) no in this gen but in the next. However, it's true that in Europe the Ps is very very popular. 

Eh, Nintendo was popular with the Wii everywhere, but that success is not something that they can just repeat like that as they've shown, actually I'd wager that the probability of MS or anyone else creating another success like the Wii was is about as high as Nintendo recreating it.

As for NES ans SNES, these are the total hardware sales of those according to vgchartz:

10	Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)	33.49	8.30	19.35	0.77	61.91
11	Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES)	22.88	8.15	17.17	0.90	49.10

It was really only the PS1 that brought console gaming to the masses in Europe
