Yeah, no Sony was never the biggest or most powerful brand in electronics not even in Japan Panasonic is still bigger and so is Hitachi.

Microsoft is bigger and more powerful than any of them, but they barely squeaked into 2nd place with the Xbox, came in 2nd with the 360 only after Kinect, and is going to finish in third place this generation to a system that came out two and a half years after the Xbox One.

The original X Box could have sold a lot more and was forced to end production earlier then planned thanks to a bad business deal between MS and NVIDA.  Also it never reached the fire sale price that the Gamecube got towards the end of its life cycle so the original X Box did more than barely squeak into second place when you consider all those factors.  Plus it sold way more games per console then either the PS2, Gamecube and Dreamcast and the 360 and X1 are also beasts when it comes to selling software.
