Other consoles usually are evolutions of the console base concept, plus general purpose multimedia device Sony added (and MS bloated in importance compared to console main purpose), NS OTOHis revolution like Wii. This time the pandemic left people more free time at home to appreciate the advantages the new hybrid concept offers, making it take off higher and faster than even Ninty expected. Obviously pandemic helped, but its "help" worked because the hybrid really is an awesome concept, without pandemic it would just have taken off a little slower, and peaked even later, or maybe, having already peaked in that case, started slowing down and we would have seen the true hybrid concept peak next gen with Switch 2.
If sales stay so high long enough, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Sony and MS using Zen 4 or later tech to make hybrid versions of PS5 and XS.
