It's only been four years, OB1... replacing a console only four years after launch is generally an admission that the console has not done as well as you wanted. Like the Gamecube replacing the N64. When consoles are successes they generally last longer than that.
Anyway, why would Microsoft think that being first would help them? It sure didn't help Sega with the Dreamcast! Or others, either... first isn't necessarially the winner of which does best.
