Who cares about which company 'beat' which one, and who is keeping count?
That was a helpful comment (that you replied to).. There was no need to bring up the perceived 'console wars'.
But since you've already broached that topic, you really need to keep things in perspective. The console wars are practically dead. It's not symmetrical competition any more like it was a few generations ago.
Nintendo is playing to its own beat, and doesn't care about matching conventional generations. And Microsoft is the biggest game publisher now — they publish 11 of the 20 most selling video game franchises. So they don't care two hoots where you play their game, as long as you do.
And since you think Sony 'won' — Sony does seem to be doing better than XBox, but make no mistake; both brands are feeling an existential crisis just the same. Console sales overall are flat year over year and by some accounts are shrinking. The only segment that's growing (and significant so) is PC gaming. It won't take much to disrupt the console segment (say, Valve gets its Steam machine concept right).
Point is - enjoy what you like. Don't worry about where it stands in the market.
