Not particularly well ...

Apple is not a game developer and it would take years for them to build a stable of high quality developers to provide the most basic first-party line-up. Beyond that, the iPod was the right product at the right time to caputre a market full of weak competitors and they have leveraged that success to make the iPhone popular; after all who doesn't want their phone, iPod and PDA to be one product so they don't have to cary around multiple devices everywhere. I personally don't see the current console manufacturers as being weak competition, and I don't see how you could leverage the success of the iPod to lead to success in the console market.
