Makes sense since all 3 console makers will inevitably move to some type of streaming service for all type devices including phones.

But they'll have to share their revenue with the manufacturers of those devices, which they never had to with their own consoles.

Why?

Does Sony have to share its PSNow revenue with PC manufacturers?

Does Netflix have to share its revenue with the manufacturers of all compatible devices? 

Does Amazon have to share its Prime video revenue with the manufacturers of all compatible devices?

Does Blade have to share its "Shadow" streaming revenue with the manufacturers of all compatible devices?

If Nintendo offers its own streaming service, it only has to get its streaming app on these devices. The end devices are just for input (controller, touchscreen...) and output (TV, mobile display, VR headset...).
