No I don't think so.
It only defeats the purpose if Nintendo is planning to make a direct competitor to the PS5, which I don't think they are (Nintendo already missed their chance to compete head-on with the PS4).
I don't think honestly Nintendo even wants to make that type of system.
If the Nintendo hardware is simply just a handheld and there's a home variant of it that allows the same games to be played on TV ... that's not really a threat to Sony. It would be like saying the Vita TV/Playstation TV is a threat to XBox One ... two very different products.
That can be a fun little family/kids-focused device that Nintendo specializes in and it can have some dildo controller (lol) from Miyamoto or whatever wacky new idea he has and serve a different function in the market. I think Sony would be supportive of that.
Even in the Fusion/unified platform setup, I don't think the home variant is going to be a huge seller. I'm thinking it's a device that'll sell somewhere in the 15-20 million range, most people investing in the Fusion platform will opt for the handheld.
