Yes, historically you need the competition to fuck up in order to take a large portion of their market share.
PS1 wouldn’t have become so dominant if Sega wasn’t busy making every mistake imaginable & Nintendo went with CDs.
360 wouldn’t have taken half of the PS2 market if Sony didn’t get arrogant and release a $600 console in 2006.
PS4 wouldn’t have stolen back a bunch of that market if Microsoft didn’t go all in on Kinect/DRM with Xbox One.
Basically PS5/Series is a repeat of PS4/XBO because Sony didn’t make any notable mistakes for Microsoft to capitalize on.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
