Speaking of fallen companies, there is a new challenger in Japan.
There isn't a single one big franchise from SCE that isn't declining since PS1 days. Only Gran Turismo and Hot Shots Golf have some remaining selling power from the big sellers of the past.
Sony is doing a great job to take the crown from Sega.

Every SCE IP that sold more than 200k (and had a sequel).
