Good Lord, this is something I'd expect to hear from one of those idiotic Nintendo fanboys at the ign boards, but not from you!
Sony is at the top because they're doing right what Nintendo is doing wrong. Nintendo has fixed most of the problems from the N64 days, but they're still behind for a reason, and it is most certainly not just because of Sony's "luck". Nintendo charges too much for licensing fees, their marketing is crap so few people buy their consoles, third-party games sell terribly on the Gamecube because the only people that bought GC's were serious Nintendo fans who only buy Nintendo games, and they still can't change their image. Sony looked at everything that Nintendo did and tried to fix those things to make them more attractive to third-parties. It is very stupid to think that the only reason for Sony's success is luck. You can't get be that lucky for so long.
