What reason other than games is there to buy a console?
But the thing is a lot of people don't want to buy every console for a variety of reasons. So they either stick to where they already have a digital library built up, or go for the ones with the most enticing exclusives.
Where their friends play is another big factor.
I think it's harder to sell people on franchises they are not familiar with. Nintendo has an advantage there since most gamers are familiar with theirs either from childhood or on one of their handhelds. And if marketed well, games like Spider-Man can have that effect as well.
