If you're talking specifically about the situation of the 1990s ... no, not really. Nintendo kinda boned Sony there if I'm being honest. Hard to be mad at Sony.

I am upset at Nintendo for being stupid and basically pissing away the console market though. There were multiple things they could have done in the 90s to stomp out the Playstation or just have let Sony release the stupid SNES CD-ROM, let it flop, and move on with things. Nintendo always used to release weird add-ons primarily for the Japanese market anyway (Famicom Disk Drive, Super Famicom Satelview BSX ... what's one more thing).

Exactly. Nintnedo walked out on Sony when Sony could've easily walked out on them in the beginning. They were using kutaragi behind sonys back and they could've fired kutaragi and cut the deal with nintnedo but decided to co-exist with nintnedo. They actually were going to fire kutaragi in the beginning too until the president saved his ass.
