That has been pretty evident starting around the 5th gen.
PS1 benefited greatly from N64 staying with carts. Saturn was DOA for various reasons. PS2 maintained that success thanks to great 3rd party support. OG Xbox had a strong core following though. PS3 was too expensive early on and Xbox had good momentum. That helped the 360 thrive. Now X1 fucked up primarily on price. They simply couldn't compete with Playstation at equal or higher price.

I refuse to believe you're serious on this.

Believe it.
If they launched for $299, I feel it would have been a different story in spite of everything. That's one of the biggest reason 360 did so well, price.

A $299 console would simply be a different console. One as weak as the Wii U probably considering that it is supposed to be $349. A $299 console would lose a lot of money.
What your saying is similar to this statement "If the PS3 launched at $399 (or lets just go with $99 because F profit), it would be a different story."
