Marketing.

Sony piggy bank and Microsoft piggy bank >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sega piggy bank

Microsoft came in to the game prepared to lose billions if that is what it took to gain market share.

Also the Playstation was so successful that Sony and the PS2 had so much momentum that there was no way they weren't going to be number one in the generation.
