I rotate between PC and Xbox Series S to a degree where there is no primary or secondary. If I had to choose, I would probably give it to PC because I can install mods and emulate older games on it.

Primary: PlayStation
Secondary: PC
I used to have everything but I sold my Xbox (not really any reason to own it alongside my PC anymore) and my Switch (just never play it and as much as I want to like TOTK I don't want to keep the system to force myself through it). I use the PC for Xbox exclusives and for FPS that I prefer KBM and I use my PS5 for everything else including COD because I prefer controller and it has gyro. I find PC just cumbersome enough that I prefer the simplicity of console. I've owned and built over 10 PCs and played PC on and off since I was a tiny kid in the 90s, but I was always a PlayStation kid and will always own a PlayStation.
I also still own every PlayStation console besides the PSP (PS1, PS2, PS3 Phat and Slim, PS Vita 1000 and 2000, PS Pocket, PS4 Pro 500M).

It wasn't part of my post at first. I decided to add it after seeing someone above doing something similar.

Switch is my main system and then I split my time between Xbox and PlayStation.

Represent.
Represent(ative) of bad opinions
I have a PS5 and a Series X.
Voted PS5 only because I literally never turn on my XBox.

Hey nothing against Xbox but I have a good gaming PC and prefer to play there. I do have Gamepass.
And thanks for the complement but it rings hollow, you guys only like me for my striking good looks and sexy body

Primary: PC
Secondary: switch
Most of the games i want to play are on pc, the switch is the only console that consistently hits the mark for me regarding exclusives (though ps5 is a close second as far as consoles go.)
No need for an xbox however as my pc can play every xbox one/series game i want nowadays, but MS treats xbox more as a platform now so i guess theyre still getting what they want out of me

Unless they come out with another Halo edition Xbox in the future, I can't see myself picking up an Xbox again. My gaming PC will pretty much always be my primary platform, and that makes owning an Xbox almost pointless.

This is in my opinion best combo, especially like me who enjoys Japanese games.

I need an option that says "primarily PC, also have a bunch of consoles that are always dusty"

Up until now, I would say PC and Playstation. But I have lost interest in consoles now that I have less time to play and most games eventually come out on PC. So I may as well stick with PC and may drop consoles altogether. In my opinion, exclusives for the latest console generation is shit. Sony and Microsoft are too woke now and I lost interest in Nintendo like 20 years ago. Thanksfully jRPGs are coming out on PC now.

Mostly Switch, with a little bit of PC on the side.
Honestly, I know that, objectively speaking, PC is by far the best gaming platform these days, and I actually have a pretty decent gaming PC and a backlog of hundreds of games spanning almost 3 decades. And I know I should spend more time with it. But after a workday, and with me already spending quite some time on the PC for editing pictures, I'm mostly just too tired or too lazy to play games on there. And yeah, I do have a bunch of Xbox controllers, and I have a cable hooked up to the TV, and it should be very comfortable, but often times it's just too much hassle. Lots of A and AA games don't play too well with dual monitor setups and dragging windows between screens, some games still require a keyboard upon boot... there's just always something holding it back for me.
And that's where Switch comes in. It's just the perfect fit for me. I can play it anytime, anywhere without hassle. It's in that perfect comfy zone for me, not sure how to explain it, but yeah, I love it to bits.
