I think a lot of people are divided on this question.
Many can only afford one console while others get all of them.
I think we can all agree that Xbox are in direct competition with the Playstation.
They compete in the same space as they are targeting pretty much the same audience (Gamers who are looking to play the latest games with the best performance on console)
Nintendo used to compete in that same space, but that changed with the Wii and they have since tried different approaches and targeted different audiences.
With the Wii they targeted everyone both young and old with it's motion controls, The Wii U tried aiming for households where you might share the TV with others, and the Switch is a hybrid system for people who want to be able to game anywhere (Sacrificing performance for portability)
I know many people who have a PS5 as well as a Switch (Or thinking about getting one)
This is mostly because they want access to the Nintendo first party titles (At least for my friends that I asked)
Me myself I have:
PS5 and PSVR2
Nintendo Switch (Hacked OG Switch, Switch Lite and Switch OLED)
A decent Gaming PC
And a bunch of handhelds including PSP, PS Vita and 3DS
I have not got any Xbox yet because there's no Xbox exclusive titles that I personally feel that I need to play. (This might change for me with the next Elder scrolls games)
I always went with Playstation because I love the Final Fantasy franchise and those games have since the first playstation been best represented on the Playstation.
But I also always felt that I didn't want to miss out on the Nintendo first party titles like the Mario and the Zelda games.
So for me it has never been a question whether to get a Nintendo console or a playstation console.
Always got myself both
I am aware that in some parts of the world that would probably be unthinkable unless you're rich.
And not everyone cares for the Nintendo games like I do
Curious to see the statistics on this poll.
