But Playstation users loved it.
It cost sony (in terms of hardware and software), but they spent to fix it, though software output.

Economically it was a huge failure.
But it won hearts, and PS fans went on to lateron get new PS's.

Sony values its consumers, to spend, even when they probably shouldn't have.
MS basically gave up on the XB1, and just let it coast the last few years, into next gen.
Nintendo abandoned the Wii U as well, as soon as they realised it wasnt doing so well.

I understand your point, PS3 was a console that had enviable support, especially in the second half of its life, and I personally consider it to be better than X1 and WiiU in the area of "delighting users" and "delivering great games" but... .

It's impossible not to take into account Sony's market loss and financial losses, and other factors I mentioned... Ps3 was a failure, I respect your opinion and those who disagree with me, but there are many disastrous factors related to the console .

Without a doubt, it was a failure, when you look at the economics of it.
That console cost sony a fortune.
