>Intracompany politics between Japanese and American leaders that had vastly different visions of the company's future.
>Failing to get new releases for major IPs on the console (Sonic) and cannibalizing the small number of major releases that did reach the console by releasing them on software from the previous gen (Virtua Fighter).
>Not embracing successes that were "too Japanese" under the perception that they would damage the brand.
>A general absence of high-quality exclusives.
>Pissing off retailers through dumb marketing gimmicks, making so those interested in the console can't even buy the damn thing.
>Pricing well above what other market alternatives were offering.
>General arrogance and a "too big to fail" attitude born out of finding success last gen.
It's a good thing no one is making those same mistakes nowadays.
