The fact that the Nintendo switch has sold as much as it has is proof that it's in its own market of casual and family. While there are certainly some hard-core gamers who use the switch, it's hard to argue that a family would prefer a $500 PS5 or Xbox series X over a cheaper console with better family games and recognizable franchises like mario. The difference between the two audiences of the consoles makes me believe that it is in another market. That being said, I also think that the decisions Xbox and Playstation make do impact Nintendo as their respective markets are very similar.
