Replace the words "first party" with "sales" and you might be on to something. Because games are subjective, sales aren't. And if I remember things correctly, it was a tale of marketing on both sides that changed things. Sony went Kevin Butler, redesigned the PS3 (slim) and started a marketing blitz the likes we haven't seen since the near-perfection that was the Sega Genesis. Meanwhile, Microsoft went all in with Kinect and decided it wanted to be an HD Wii. One succeeded, one failed, and that, more than anything, was what caused these two platforms to switch positions, not so much their libraries.
