Just rocking a PS4 Pro atm, soon to be PS5. I'll be more likely to pick up an Xbox as well next gen with the way things are going.

I have a One X, PS4 Pro, Switch and mid-range PC. I barely ever use my PS4 because it's a terrible piece of hardware and not a good user experience software-wise to me. I primarily game on my One X, I enjoy Nintendo games like Animal Crossing on my Switch, and I play PC-only titles like League, Civ VI and Valorant on my PC, plus the few games where I get a noticeably better experience than on my X such as Dishonored 2 which I can run at 60fps.

PC + PS + Switch. It covers basically everything. I get access to all exclusives, and I get THE best versions of 3rd party games on PC.

Having an Xbox and a PC is extremely redundant to me, but I could see why some Xbox diehards opt for that route if they want to be fully invested in the Microsoft ecosystem.

PS + PC(that will need an upgrade to be relevant next gen) + Switch

Once the PC is upgraded the PS5 and Switch will mostly be exclusive machines (Switch already is)

PC - 3rd party and PC only content
PS - PS exclusives
Switch - Nintendo exclusives

Going forward my expecation is no real change apart from swapping PS4 for PS5 at some point post launch. Unless MS decide to have Xbox console only content I have access to largest library comprising MS/Sony/Nintendo plus 3rd party developers/publishers.

PC - 95%
Switch Ring Fit - 5%

Most diabolical of all for gaming:
PC Desk - 55%
PC Lounge - 40%
PC Steam Link Anywhere (remote) - 5%

I "work at a desk" most days too, and depending on my mood, it's simple to enjoy playing wherever I want.

I know this has probably been done to death previously, but still very curious. Granted many of us have PCs but don't use them for gaming. I wouldn't count that. I didn't include SWITCH to not have a million combinations. You can list it though.

Me:
Xbox 90 percent (thanks to Game Pass)
PS4 5 percent (a few exclusives need to finish)
PC 5 percent (work on PC all day, not as motivated to be on unless co-op with a friend).

Pretty much same for me but i dont play on pc at all and have a switch on the side

xbox - 80% (gamepass, all multiplat)
ps - 5% 1-2 exclusives every year (never multiplat)
switch - 15% 3-4 exklusives every year and evergreen/classic Nintendo firstparty titles (never multiplat if it exists on xbox)

PC + PS + Switch. I mostly play on PC right now but it will go back to PS as my PC gets more and more outdated. I like to have PS2 + Gamecube + Nintendo Mini consoles hooked up for some retro gaming every now and then as well.

PC + Switch.

I haven't played a game on PS4 since I wanted to give the last Ratchet and Clank game a try but I only played for a few hours. Before that it was probably Spiderman. I have an Xbox but it's only ever been used to play Blu-rays and Rock Band.

I play everything on PC and then some small stuff/Nintendo stuff on Switch.

I do most of my gaming on PC and I have a Switch and PS4 Pro for exclusives.

So far this year I've finished 33 games on PC, 2 on PS4, and 0 on Switch. Last year's totals were 42 on PC, 2 on Switch, 1 on PS4 (Bloodborne replay), and 1 on PS3 (Demon's Souls replay).

For the last two years, the split has been pretty much like this:

PS4 70%
Xbox 20% (GamePass is great, but at the end of the day there aren't that many games that interest me more than the ones I can play in my PS4)
PC 8% (Only play when my wife is using the TV for playing in PS4/Xbox. Also, my PC is crap so I cannot play anything even mildly demanding)
Switch 2% (A bit of Ring Fit and that's it. Waiting for BotW2, Metroid Prime 4 or another Mario)

How about Switch, Mobile, and Retro games. Is Raspberry Pi a PC? If you are gaming on a Chromebook for Geforce Now is that a PC, or if you are running GamePass streaming off Android, does it count as Xbox?

Anyways, for me PC + PS4 Pro + Switch + Retro Games off Raspberry Pi + some iPad/Android gaming on the go.

I put PC only, but it was a lie mostly.

I play on PC 95+% of the time. PS4 and Switch on the rare occasion there is an exclusive I want to play.

PS4, Switch, and a pretty outdated PC. I mainly just play Left 4 Dead 2 on it and also use it for work stuff.

Just the PC now, got rid of xbox and ps4 a while back because I can't stand those low framerates in most of the few exclusives (luckily at least the xbox ecosystem later arrived on PC). Still have the switch because I could play laying in bed/sofa with it but I never actually use it because games either look/run super bad or are overpriced.

PC, 3DS, PS4.

We haven't yet seen a reason to get a Switch, seeing as we could play Breath of the Wild on our Wii U. The PS4 we have solely to pay the Exclusives ransom; anything that's possible to play on PC gets played on PC. It's just more convenient: we each have a PC anyway, might as well chuck a graphics card and (soon) an NVME drive in them and play games on them too.

I tried to get into smartphone games when I got an S10 and found them mostly too fiddly to bother with, so for mobile gaming I stick with my n3DS. I'm still working on all the good stuff from the 3DS library, anyway.

Switch and PS. Thought about building a PC, but decided to just get a PS5 instead.
