Just to put things into perspective - we're comparing 7 generations of Nintendo systems to 4 generations of Sony systems.

That's not a good point. Generations are volatile because every company makes them last for as long as they want. It would be better to say Nintendo had a 9 year advantage compared to Sony (1986/SNES ~ 1995/PS1). 

Or have released 5 systems more than Sony.
