I was actually talking about the OG Xbox port ... I think it was of San Andreas. It would take a long time to find the source, I'll look. I could very well be wrong though. Never know how much is just shitty rumors to make a company look bad  

And yeah, I agree that PS3 had a lot of effort put into it to help it catch up. I should have specified about the first couple of years. About Playstation not necessarily being a bigger brand than Nintendo ... whilst I agree, we are talking about home consoles here. 

It could be totally true. If so, shame on Sony for a terrible practice and I'm glad they turned that ship around pronto.

As for home consoles, I don't think the Playstation brand is why Sony sold around three times as many Playstations as Nintendo sold N64s. Sony had to put in a monstrous effort right out of the gates to steer prospective buyers away from a Nintendo console. I remember at the time it was extremely common for parents to refer to all video game consoles, no matter tha manufacturer as "Nintendos". Not exactly a small feat.

But vita to 3DS is exactly a small feat
