Yeah they both make a bunch of really anti consumer choices constantly, I never got the diehards who go hard for the console. Exclusive games I can at least understand, but is an Xbox really that functionality different from a PlayStation?
I was a Nintendo kid in the 99s, then had a PS2 followed by a 360, I really only got a PS4 cause the opportunity for a deal came up, and I only got a PS5 cause I already had a PS4.
Admittedly that’s probably where most of the fan clubbing comes from, generationally upgrading until you’re to use to the system to change.
Let’s not forget that with Gamepass, it’s not just a better game by folding in PC, but they’re doing something completely different with their consoles than Sony is. More and more, Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo are either competing with Valve or against themselves, and not each other.
Except for Nintendo, they’re still just doing what they’ve been doing for the last 20 years, releasing consoles with outdated hardware and relying on gimmicks to sell them, at this point they’re not even trying to compete anymore, Valve is a stronger competitor for Microsoft and Sony than Nintendo nowadays.
I don’t think they would be ditching the table if they were winning tbh. Their goal is always to get as many people to subscribe to their stuff as possible
Playstation’s exclusives are on the whole, a lot more interesting to me. I honestly have almost no interest in Xbox because of that. It’s not the hardware, it’s purely the software.

Playstation won with the PS5 because MS realized PC players have more money and went back to them.
MS left the game because they found a better game.

Nintendo has always been the king of handheld for as long as handheld gaming has been a thing.
I’d put a lot of money on them viewing Valve as their biggest threat currently.
Yeah, I loved my switch when I first got it, but have hardly touched it since I got my steamdeck.
But the switch isn’t just an underpowered console… It’s a handheld with an HDMI port
