Don't really care. For me it's more a case of which company I don't want to make a console. That would be Apple and Google, because they are already too all powerful. I'd probably throw Samsung in there too.
In any case I think playing video games on TV is headed for a sea change and there is maybe only one (if that) more generation of traditional game console left after this one. Streaming is the future, and more than likely streaming through tablets and smartphones as well as other set top boxes like Apple TV and Android TV and Playstation TV. Actually I wouldn't be at all surprised if Sony is positioning itself to not release a PS5 and go all in with streaming.
Hardware will be uber cheap, AAA game development will cost a lot less (or rather increase a lot slower). With streaming you'll be able to play 2014 gaming PC quality games on a box that's as powerful as Wii U, or even less.
Which is to say that any comany not already in console gaming would be mad to get into it with a traditional home console.
