Playstation is the market leader for at least 2 generations because of their amazing first party games

of the two, the switch is like currently the 3rd top selling console of all time, only behind the DS and PS2 with 130m+ sold.

And the Wii wiped the floor with both PS3 and 360

Nintendo has a category of its own. Which again also has a strong exclusives library. Switch users that own one of the more powerful consoles also go for playstation. 50 million PS5 vs 26 million XBOX Series consoles as of Nov 2023 vs 132 million Switches that has been out longer.

Nintendo actually try something new with their consoles too, so that's at least good.
Everyone should be moving to PC though, you actually have freedom there. I think Steam machines would do pretty good if they came out now.
