Most of those weren't a massive success except the wii and it's too early to say for the NS. |
Did you just say the NES and SNES weren't massive successes lol? Did you completely miss the hype the NES Mini and SNES Mini brought with them? Sony is always welcome to re-release their old consoles, but I doubt they'd reach the sales numbers of the SNES Mini.
To say the NES and SNES weren't massive successes is an incredibly anachronistic thing to say. Before the Playstation not a single console came even close to 100 million units sold. NES controlled over 90% of the market and the SNES controlled almost 60% of the market.
The huge advantage Playstation has is that Sony is a global company with over 50.000 employees with factories, distributors and partners across the globe making it far easier to distribute and market their consoles across the world. Nintendo meanwhile barely has 5000 employees and is smaller than Ubisoft, EA, Activision, etc.
Nintendo doesn't have much of a presence in developing countries, Sony does.
