Nintendo had video games in north American WAY WAY before the Playstation came out. But Sony was selling walkmans and such before Nintendo came here.

Nintendo had at least 2 generations of game systems before sony entered. First there was the NES, then the SNES both before the PS. Around the same time the main competitor was Sega but they stopped making consoles after the dream cast and focussed on games, stand up arcades and, in Japan, gambling machines after merging with Sammy. Also, there was a Turbo Duo, released by NEC and the first to use CD rom, and Panasonic tried to release a multimedia system that flopped, well before the PS1. Before even Nintendo was making games, Atari, Coleco and INtellivision all had consoles, and nintendo made games for those consoles (Donkey Kong etc), Sony did not. Sony has been marketing products in the US since the 1960s but the PS1 was the first game console they ever made. Sony started as a compny right after WWII, Nintendo is over 100 years old starting as a compny that made toys and card games. I suspect that some of these products found their way into the US before they stated selling video games but I don't really know.

your knowledge is spotty at best. The panasonic system was called the 3D0, but there was also the philips CD-i and the atari jaguar (and following jaguar-cd) that competed. Not to mention the sega CD, 32x, nomad and saturn, the neo geo & neo geo CD. There were lots of players around back in the day.
Also, if you didnt know, the playstation was originally designed as the cd upgrade to the SNES, but Nin put the kibosh on it.
