Microsoft is supporting two platforms, one of them being an all-in-one OS that already has XBL support.
I should know this, I'm a Windows Phone user!

Sony wins home consoles by default. PS is also their best-performing division.

Nintendo is stuck having to make their own hardware, for better or worse. Worst-case scenario, they go back to just making playing cards and hanafuda.

Using which metrics exactly ? Financials is their best by far.

Sony home consoles are indeed the strongest brand since they started, but Nintendo might be more stubborn in case of console apocalypse as it's their only business with handelds.  Also Xbox would probably continue wheter it's profitable or not as long as consoles are still a thing.

My money is on Nintendo stopping home consoles first ad Microsoft stopping all consoles business first. I can see a gen with only a home console from sony ad an handeld from Nintendo and VGC forums betting on which will be the most unpopular.

I was thinking in terms of growth, in both revenue and profit. Unless I'm wrong, of course.

I was under the impression it was performing really well.
