People do that all the time on EVERYTHING. "COD is shit. Earthbound is amazing!" And the sort. Sony didn't cheat their way into winning. MS and Nintendo screwed up. So they have vaild reason to win.


Your example is basically the exact opposite of equating sales with quality, but okay.

I didn't say Sony "cheated" their way into winning. Yes, they are winning because MS and Ninty screwed up. Do they "deserve" to win? Nah, there's no such thing as deserving to win in business. You do what you do, and you try your best to win.

 

I mean, Microsoft could've bought Activision and 2K and made CoD, GTA, Destiny, Bioshock, etc. all exclsuive to the XBO, and it would've destroyed the PS4 in no time. Would that mean they "deserved" to win? Again, no.

I could spin that and say. They were smart and beat Sony and Nintendo to the punch. So they deserve to win. 'Cause Sony and Nintendo failed to capitize on an opening. Which MS did here, in your case. Nintendo: Sony got all the 3rd parties away from Nintendo, ps1 years. XB1: Sony made the game lending ad, that made fun of MS' unexplained DRM. Examples of dick moves. If MS bought those companies, would that be a dick move? Fuck yeah. But that is a subjective emotional reason. VS them doing it. Getting around monopoly laws. And owning Sony and Nintendo's ass. That's how a corporation thinks. And someone would say getting around monoply laws is more impressive than anything else thrown on the table.
