Exclusives are the opposite of competition, though. It’s why streaming platforms are so crappy, because if you want to watch what you like it’s probably split between 2+ platforms and you have to pay for multiple. If you want to play the games you like, ultimately that’s probably asking you either own multiple consoles or just be very patient and have a PC.
Also, not sure about Nintendo, the literal god of exclusives.

Maybe from your point of view, but exclusives move consoles. If someone’s deciding between a PS5 and an Xbox Series X it’s likely the exclusives that will make them choose one or the other. Part of the reason Xbox is far behind is because they just don’t have many good exclusives.
Yes, anticompetitive behavior is profitable for trillion dollar companies and bad for consumers. You sound like a “temporarily embarrassed millionaire” when you commiserate with corporations screwing people for profit.
I’m sure Sony and Nintendo would love to get rid of exclusives too but can’t because of other companies. That’s what’s called competition.
