I would say consoles are mainstream and streaming will be niche for another generation or two. They just want to go streaming because it has potential to reach more customers in future without relying on dedicated machines. I expect streaming to be shoddy for awhile. I might give streaming a try in 2030 if I'm still alive.  Eventually it will be like what Netflix did to blu ray and overtake.  That will be awhile though.
