Sega saturn would have sold alot better. and sega wouldnt have been so broke.
the PS got lucky and the saturn didnt, thats all. sony didnt do much for this succes, they were there when first nintendo fucked it up and than sega fucked it up.
the games that pushed the PS the hardest would have been made anyway.

At least in Germany, Sony did a lot for their success. They stomped the competition with ads on TV and magazines and were very successful to give the PS brand an image of cool and mature gaming and this image still lives on until today.

PR is now considered doing much? they went for the casuals and made gaming "cool". thats something bad not good.
