I am well aware that this is super impractical, but I thought it would be fun to speculate on this nonetheless. Imagine if Sony and Microsoft were to team together and make a console that could contain the knowledge and best of the Xbox platform and Sony platform. At hindsight, I think that the console would turn out to be a disaster. I don't think anything would be totally agreed upon between both companies. So, the design would look freaky and awkward by trying to appeal to both companies visual departments and the controller, online experience and system software would most likely also be convoluted because both companies wouldn't be able to implement exactly what they want. Their ideas just wouldn't clash with the other companies ideas. Overall, I think the console would be a mess and be pretty poorly optimized. I also think this console would be absurdly expensive. One of the main things that keeps console prices and accessories reasonable is a "price war". For instance, Sony completely undercut Microsoft when they released their Xbox One in 2013. The Xbox One originally sold for $500, while the PlayStation 4 took the initiative and sold for $400, which resulted in higher sales for an about equal console. Without this "price war" being a thing the companies can sell their console for practically any price because people only have one choice. Potentially the only good thing I can see coming from this is that users would get the best of both worlds for their selection of games.
