PS4 is a success already, and will continue to dominate for years to come.
With XOne Microsoft lost some serious marketshare (especially painful at the time when Nintendo imploded completely), and no matter how they end up it will be considered a failure, since it has certainly fallen short of their projections. XOne's pre-launch has damaged the brand so much that it effectively killed its successor, there is no chance Microsoft will ever make another console.

7th gen market share was about 30%. 8th gen market share is just below that, but increasing each week (due to poor Wii U sales). So they haven't lost 'serious' market share.

There is a chance that they will make another consoles. You shouldn't speak in absolutes about things you don't know about.

I am talking only about consoles that are relevant in the gaming market. It was 50:50 there, Wii was a completely different (pre-teen/retiree) market with different games.

Now it's 65:35, and WiiU sliding even more into kiddie toy territory.
