Sony gaming makes 3 to 4x much than Nintendo makes... I mean if you were even attempting to be objective you would concede this fact. |
There is a difference between revenue and profits from gaming. Nintendo has earned more profits from gaming since Sony entered the console race in the 90s, on the other hand Sony has earned more revenue from gaming since the 90s. In fact, Switch 1 earned more profits than PS1+PS2+PS3 and PS4 combined. Only with the PS5 has Sony became a huge profit maker from gaming.
The reason for that difference between revenue and profits has been that Nintendo has earned profits from hardware sales as well as selling more first party games than Sony, while Sony on the other hand has lost money on hardware which made their console business less profitable before. On the other hand Sony has always sold more third party games which contributes to them making more revenue than Nintendo.
