Sony and Nintendo are in competition. But are they really?

*Looks at the homepage of vgchartz* Yep, they still compete with each other.

Your arguments againt are not very convincing. The music analogy doesn't work. If you were talking about 2 specific games that have different audiences, then I could get behind it. It doesn't work well because both systems offer a range of overlapping games and genres.

Overlapping users doesn't mean there isn't competition. If a game comes out on the Switch I want to play that means I'm spending time and/or money on it, and not the ps5.

The form factor of these systems is irrelevant.

^ this.

Also there are games that release on both, that actually make you have to choose between one or the other.
Yes, they compete against one another, even if Nintendo kind of went their own way, both are consoles that aim to sell games.
