I think he was talking specifically about consoles.

Well why does he refer to xbox and playstation ie the products rather then the company and then say Nintendo rather than Wii?  If he said Sony I would off assumed he meant psvita plus Playstation but he says specifically Playstaton or xbox and then randomly Nintendo. 

When most people talk about "consoles" they talk about home consoles, that has become the base definition of consoles, so there is no reason to think that he is talking about handheld consoles. Also when most journalists or whatever talk about hardware sales these days, it's always about PS4 vs XBO and sometimes Wii U. Why wouldn't they include 3DS/Vita? Because it's a different market, so there is no reason for it to be bunched in with the PS4/XBO/WiiU.
