The Xbox' presence in Asia can be simulated best by inflating a balloon, then letting go of it and listening the sound it produces. It's very much a niche product that is only imported by the most hardcore of gamers, who also need quite a bit of money because as it turns out most of Asia is not that rich. As for the Playstation, similar poor conditions means that they'll be lagging a generation or two behind with the consoles. So around now they'll be getting into the PS4 and its games. So who's going to do better? Well, since Sony is starting to orient itself out of the console market (I would not be surprised if the PS6 will be the last console they ever make, if they even make one) and how it conducts itself (Sony Interactive Entertainment is now based out of California, with all the dread consequences that comes with that), it's starting to alienate its Asian market. Microsoft and Nintendo are getting along rather well recently because despite being in the same business, they have different target demographics (more hardcore VS more casual) and core markets (the west VS Asia). Furthermore, the Xbox moving into the Asian market is unlikely in the near future, and Nintendo has its kiddy image and its consoles don't really play the big AAA games (no big name shooters on the console), so it makes sense for them to team up to stomp out Sony.
There's even been rumors that the Game Pass would be coming to the Switch, which would be both a brilliant and unheard of move. Microsoft gains access to a massive market with an affordable service (reminder that consoles are NOT a source of income for any of the big three), and Nintendo makes their platform to sell more of their own games more attractive in both the east and the west. If you look at the specs for the Switch Pro it would not measure up to the Xbox, but being able to play Game Pass games on the go? Well, that would be massively interesting for both companies.
