So I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree that Sega had the American market "sewn up lock stock and barrel at one point."

65% peak market share if Wikipedia is to be believed. Doesn't change the fact that Sega's dominance has been overstated by NiteFox, but it does confirm that Sega put up a pretty good fight for quite some time. So Nintendo "owning" the market is pretty much just for 8-bit NES era IMO, in the rest they were healthy and brought more profits, but there was enough competition in the marketplace.

While we're talking Wikipedia, check their article about console wars.
