Honestly, I would not be surprised one bit if sooner or later we will see MS IP's on Nintendo systems. If there is one manufacturer who clearly has no real interest in building hardware that is MS. They know that they still need the Xbox Series Whatever to keep their old fanbase, but I doubt they will be manufacturing boxes 10 years down the line. As soon as they can, and see it profitable, they will sell Gamepass, XBLG, and XCloud wherever they can.

They are already bowing down to Steam as their windows storefront was a complete disaster, so yeah, doubt this is a stretch.

just like the bravias in 10 years will have a build in ps now/playstation?

btw you had captainexplosion agree with your point

I really don't know, in all honesty. If it is profitable, sure, I could see Sony go down that road, but thus far they experiment WAY more with hardware than MS. MS promised us VR/AR technologies for years now, and they completely abandoned it. Sony introduced AR to the mainstream almost 2 decades ago and has one of the few reliable VR ecosystems already. It's pretty clear they think that hardware will be still important even in a decade.

And Nintendo.... well they pretty much build their games around their highly creative hardware kits. It's really a market perception and it's obvious that the Japanese manufacturers still think more about it, than the US manufacturer. Which will be the right choice, only time will tell, but from the outside, it's pretty glaring. This interview is pretty much a clear sign that this is their strategy:
