How could Samsung support their console if they launched one? It just seems unclear right now.

But i guess people didn't expect Sony to launch a console that would become the most successful two generations in a row. Sony didn't really make games before the Playstation. As far as i know Sony didn't make much for their MSX computers

If Samsung were to enter the console biz, they would probably need to buy a publisher like ZeniMax and start up some studios. Samsung could also try to buy the Xbox brand, but I doubt they have the money for that. 

Sony was in the right place, at the right time. The SNES was waning, and Sega had begun it's suicide run with the 32X. Nintendo going with carts added fuel to the fire. 

I guess it was good timing but did Sony own any game developers before they released the Playstation 1? 

They did buy Psygnosis, which later turned in to Studio Liverpool (RIP Wipeout).
