Than why do you reply to my posts in other threads? The Site admins are not stupid, just because you didn't directly reply by hitting the reply button is still replying to my posts.

Except I never hit reply to your posts, just look at you never being marked in any other thread except this time I decided to reply to you.

That has nothing to do with how successful the next console will be.  WiiU to Switch proves your point invalid.

I'll wait for your excuses on why PS5 was more successful than Scarlet then. You can certainly say that Switch proves anything if you want (even ignoring that it have attracted plenty of portable userbase from 3DS). Still we have historic of Sony doing well in all 4 gens, lowest it have ever sold is more than anything MS ever sold.

They had no where near the quality of 1st party games as Nintendo and Sega did. 

Nintendo sure you can say. Sega on dreamcast was very weak, besides being ridden with other problems.

Majority of companies rely heavily on 3rd party, its really only Nintendo who can continue to sell systems based on there own software. Sony are good at marketing there system and playing it safe while as we have seen with Sega, Nintendo and Xbox, they try doing newer innovating things. Just look how different they are compared to the previous console. The 360 to OG Xbox, The DreamCast to Sega Saturn, The Wii to GameCube, than look at the PS1, PS2, PS3.. All same controllers with better hardware.

Errr based on their own SW they failed with N64, GC and WiiU. So you are basically wrong.

In junk time sales? sure, but the 360 was hands down a more successful platform regardless. One company drops support to prepare for the next gen while the other company continues support in that current market. That's not beating your competition, that's the competition leaving because the race was already over. The Dreamcast flopped while the Gamecube wasn't marketed well, that helped the PS2. The WiiU flopped and the XB1 wasn't marketed very well, that helped the PS4. Its pretty obvious as to why Sony has these blow out generations and that's because the DreamCast, WiiU and XB1 didn't play it safe, you know who did play it safe? The PS2 and PS4.

Junk time sales? What are you talking about? Sure X360 had good sales, what is that about? And thanks again to prove you will dismiss success.

Wrong. Sony play it safe and in some cases smart and safe. They usually wait for someone else to make the change and if it works they than go in and mirror it. EG PS Move stolen straight from the Wii's success and PSN taken straight from Xbox Live. I can name you a list of things Sony take that they have been doing since the PS1 days like Rumble packs and its no different to the PS5 with HD Rumble etc. Thats playing it safe. Taking risks is when you try to push something no one has done before.

My main point out of all this is Sony rely on 3rd party just as much as Xbox do. The PS4 and XB1 would do horrible in sales if it wasn't for the 3rd party support.

Sony already motion in mind at the end of PS2, eyetoy was a thing they put there, they also had gyro on sixaxis. PS2 also had internet gaming. PS1 already had dancing games with arrow mats (DDR like) and glove for fighting games. So what Sony have really copied from MS is charging for PSN (chat is hardly something you can say MS invented).

As expected you brought nothing of value. So I won't reply back again.
