Hmm, the Rebellion was bigger than the Empire in the beginning? (PS1 Sales were huge). Also, you say that Vader (Xbox) killed Obi-Wan (Sega), but it was more so Sony that killed Sega, Sega was pretty much already dead when Xbox entered the market. Xbox was the successor to Dreamcast if anything. The rest of your analogy works ok though, up until the part where MS games come to PS4

SEGA was doing badly sales wise but I think they saw Xbox as taking any remaining market they could have captured.  There just wasn't going to be room for them in the future and they couldn't outspend MS (also they were woefully managed for years which put them in that position in the first place)

Kind of the nail in the coffin when you're a historical competitor being outdone by ps2 and then two new announcements of gamecube and xbox, a new entrant coming in with all the same ideas you have.

If anything, it works better with the analogy extending into the newer movies, with ms and sega being friends, and then ms finishing it off.
