Why not include Switch as well?

Okay Xbox is on the way out, we all know that.  But Nintendo are crushing it.

I know it's hard align as really the Switch is in the PS4/XB1 gen, but you get the idea.

Nintendo is pretty much in its own category at this moment. Its more consumerfriendly and ate facing other challenges than most AAA gaming companies. Although Nintendo is also gearing the massive increase in de costs going forward.

The Switch is still the most accessible console, but I can see the successor facing the same problems as PS5 if it launches at 400 euro plus and almost all games are increasing in price and online costs 70 euro a year.

I completely reject the idea that Sony and Nintendo are not in direct competition with each other.

Sony does compete directly in the video games market. Both companies are selling video games that make you choose where to spend your time and money.

This argument is like saying The Saturn wasn't in competition with the PS1 becuase Sega was focused on Arcade conversions and Sony wanted new home IP titles.
