Microsoft - it allowed them to be the 3rd competitor in the market instead of 4th. Not only that, Sega ported a few games to Xbox, so that helped out (slightly) in the s/w department Then Sony, as it helped them secure more of a hold against MS/Nintendo. All it helped Nintendo out with the whole Sega v. Nintendo debate.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
