Again, I didn't clarify I was referring to their tech. And again, Sony has become less relevant by leaving markets while MS is getting into markets. That's the main point, given the person I was responding was critical about MS going into other markets.

Depends on what you mean by less relevant. As a company, Sony has made strides to adjust their image, while PlayStation is, actually, breaking into new markets (very relevant). Context is key.

I agree with your point about Microsoft,however.

I feel bringing Playstation to new markets has become crucial as some markets move away from Playstation. Japan seems to enjoy phone games. The west is strong for PS4 but casual gamers seem to be content with mobile devices as well. Its uncertain how much success Playstation will find in markets that opt for PC gaming (especially when PC is the cheaper option). The failure that is Vita also means Playstation has lost relevance in a market Playstation was once strong.

I feel Sony is less relevant as they have left some markets, sell things off, etc. If they had as much money as MS lying around, I'm sure would try to expand as well. Even their odds of penetrating some markets was slim.
