ps2 sold alot at the start cause everyone was like "i dont wanna wait a long time to get a next gen console, so lets get ps2!"
now thats how xbox 2 will be. and if sony gets it right the graphics will be a bit better than xbox 2's
on the other hand, everyone will still remember ps and ps2 and wait and not buy xbox 2 and get ps3. theres a few more but i dont feel like typing :\

Dreamcast was the first nex gen console. Being released early has nothing to do with it. I believe its more on reputation.
Sega developed a bad rep of releasing consoles.
Nintendo developed a rep of being targeted more towards children.
Sony had a good PSX generation, and deveoped a rep as the #1 runner.
MS Had no rep going into it.
i think sales reflect such issues. and turning a rep around is hard to do.
