You don't need (if you're a world player like Google) all or even most gamers to have excellent internet. You only need enough of them (where "enough" is tied to the cost charged per user etc.). Then you can start peeling users away from consoles onto your platform.
I was a confirmed CD buyer ("internet's not reliable enough to stream high quality music"), Blu-ray buyer ("internet's not reliable enough to stream high quality video") who hasn't bought a bluray for a year or a CD for a couple of years. I was on 25Mb internet for five years, now on 300Mb.
IOW, the world keeps on turning, tech improves, and if the right mix of ingredients go in to the stadia then it could stand a chance of disrupting Sony and Microsoft in marginal users' homes. Switch, not as likely. Son/daughter of Switch? Possibly.
Created an account just to ask for a ban on “blimmin’“, “ruddy” and “heck”, @nintendolife. All funny once, maybe twice, but it’s time to move on from the quaint bowdlerisation.
