Sony and Nintendo were cool back then, they almost became business partners with Sony making the Nintendo CD ironically named PlayStation, except Nintendo lost faith in the idea of CD games while Sony had already made thousands of PlayStations. Sony ended up having to throw away all of them. And out of anger at Nintendo decided to create a console of their own, which as a slap in the face they kept the name PlayStation and were Nintendo's biggest rival in the Mid 90's and on. Sony gave birth to the rated T and M games that we see today. Without Sony's PlayStation, Nintendo would probably have conquered the world by now, not to say that they aren't close right now with the Wii.

Goodness man. I really hope you don't believe the fellow that told you that mess of fallacies.
Nintendo tapped Sony to create the disc drive for their next console. Things went well until the final contract was reviewed by Nintendo. Sony had written the contract with the stipulations that they retain all branding and rights to the console basically relegating Nintendo to a 2nd party development studio. Nintendo immediately pulled out attempted to strike a deal with Philips but that too fell through. Because they couldn't get a disc drive manufacturer on board for their next console, they were forced to continue using catridges.
Also, M and T rated games (and their pre-ESRB equivelants) were around prior to the release of the Playstation. Sony had nothing to do with the origination of either that style of content or the rating board itself.

People accuse Sony of being a misspelled Classical Greek philosopher? d |
well, Sony worked on its montion controller all the way back in the beginning of PS2 gen, but that didnt stop people from calling Sony a misspelled Classical Greek philisopher.
And yes, Nintendo asked them to make a CD drive for SNES, but then they screwed them over and went to Philips, and for some reason they sticked to the cartidges. After they saw the success of PlayStation they made their systems disc based, even though they ripped on them in SNES era. Yup, a typicall Classical Greek philisophers
Sadly those stop being funny when you don't have superior product to back them up. And among all those cases only Sega did.

So pretty much what I just said... Sony had already began production on them before the deal fell through costing Sony millions and pissing them off enough to make them join the videogame war.
I know M and T games and such were around before PlaySation but PlayStation ushered in the era of Mature games, there was an abundance of mature games on PlaySation, I'm not saying Nintendo wouldn't of eventually directed there attention to the mature audience, I'm just saying without Sony it wouldn't of happened so soon.

No, production never began. A few prototypes were developed but that's it. And it didn't cost Sony much of anything as Nintendo paid for it. Sony wasn't making the disc drive as a favor.
And the push for "M" oriented games began with Sega and 3DO. You're 15, man. Stop reading revisionist history and listen to the people that actually lived through it.
