Sony don't concentrate solely on the playstation. They make tvs and VCrs and hi-fi systems.
Microsoft are the same. They have produced software for computers (windows for you ignorant people). Bill gates made alot of money and until recently was the richest man in the world.
Nin tendo however have concentrated on games and consoles over the past 15 years or so. They put more effort into making sure things will work and will look good.
I give sony a bit of credit for doing well with the playstation but unless they concentrate more on the playstaion they will never conquer the market.
Microsoft have designed a console on other peoples ideas and what "ordinary" people think. This is a good idea but has not seemed to have worked for the Xbox. They descovered that big things were seen as symbols of power but thats not really true with consoles is it.
Consoles look better when they are small and compact. Not HUGE. The Xbox is BIG 3 times the volume of the gamecube.
Now back to the origional point. Nintendo concentrate fully on consoles which means they have more experts and experiance. Sony have some experiance whilst Microsoft have none.
I think that when both the Xbox and GC have been released in both europe and america the GC will sell well. The Xbox will sell a bit but not as well as the GC. In 5 years people will have forgotten about the Xbox and people who do remember it will do so with a grimace.
The PS2 sales will drop gradually and playstation will be second banana to nintendo.

Hey, that's my word TBN! :D

The PlayStation dominated the last generation of gaming, and I think Sony have done brilliantly.
Also, Sony may make other electrical stuff, but they obviously have a department solely for gaming. So, in other terms, Sony are also true console makers.
Sega are as well, more so than Sony probably. They've never made anything else, have they?

Nope

No, it's large because they can't fit all the Xbox's stuff into anything smaller
