A unified platform would be financially a great soultion for gamers but it would have its downsides too.
One main problem is, who decides the standards of a unified platform? Not just graphical standards, also service standards, interface standards etc. ?
What if I don't like the standards proposed on the unified paltform? I wouldn't have any other choice to go with as an alternative.
Take VR for example, who gets to decide which is the best standard between Oculus, Vive or PS VR? By having multiple choices I can go with the solution I like the most. On a unified platform I would be stuck with just one. Alternatively you could have multiple standards supported at the same time, but in that case you still wouldn't be able to enjoy every game you want on a single setup.
