It's not the amount of money, it's the level of risk. They can't risk getting into an arms race with the other two. If Sony's gaming division collapses, they have 20 other products to keep them afloat. If MS's gaming division collapses, they have 100 other products to keep them afloat. If Nintendo's gaming division collapses, Nintendo collapses.


I totally get that. But quite frankly, I see no difference between trying to appeal to a whole different, probably non-existant fanbase, with consoles that are so drastically different from the competition, they might as well not be competitors... to trying your chances with a traditional console, similar to PS4 and One - thus gaining at least third-party support.

They're trying to hit that sweet spot they achieved with the Wii. Sounds just as risky to me - probably even more.
