I haven't said anything like Sony doesn't screw up. You and others insist that whenever Sony wins is by luck. very Lucky to beat Nintendo 3:1 7:1 and 2,5:1... And when screwing up Nintendo beats Sony 1,15:1. Who won by luck or others mistake them?

 

You don't have the slightest Idea of Nintendo profit on consoles nor Sony loss because of Ps3, you have their reports that in the Nintendo case have hh and console and other merchandise together as well as a lot of Sony reports had other info. If you use hh to say Nintendo profited more on HOME console let's use MS total profit to say Xbox is the winner.

 

And on the topic of piracy you completely avoided answering and just stated that PSP have a worst tie ratio than DS using vgc bogus data and ignored that DS is equally easy to pirate and ps4 having bluray was harder to pirate than DS with cartridges. Also x360 didn't suffered with piracy even being easy to.

The tie ratio on vgchartz is based upon actual shipment data. It's not bogus at all.

PSP was much easier to pirate for than the DS. PSP used the wrong media and Sony later rectified that with the Vita (which has its own share of mistakes), what more proof do you want? The PSP only had 3 games that sold over 5 million units, the DS had 19 games that sold over 5 million units. Even the Wii U will most likely have more 5 million+ sellers lol.

Sony has handhelds as well, so it's only fair to include them into this discussion. They're dedicated gaming systems. MS total profit has little to do with gaming industry, so that comparison is bogus. 

But MS doesn't have handhelds, so is it "fair" in a discussion of who "won" a console generation to hamstring MS and include handheld profits?

You always mention this idea of what's fair or not when you bring this up (again and again and again).  It isn't about what's fair, it'ssimply about what's measurable.  You don't know what profits came from the console side of things versus handhelds so in a discussion of who won a console generation, which is what these threads are always about in case you were unaware, bring in profits makes no damn sense because you can't separate out things.  The only things we can separate out are sales either of hardware or of software.  Any other qualification for winning a console generation is just you trying to make it so Nintendo won every generation they've been a part in, which is becoming more predictable than the tide btw.
