yeah this thread has been a joke for a while. I have a lot to say on the subject of fanboys, but apparently nobody wants to hear it because my experiences weren't the norm.

I still maintain that Sony Fanboys are the least annoying, if for no other reason than the fact that I didn't even MEET a sony fanboy until after microsoft fanboys had their crusade against their primary competition. For years (and even today) it's just "sony sucks this" and "Sony fucked up that" and I STILL See people claiming the PS3 has no games or whatever.

I disagree with this statement for a number of reasons.  I have come across WAY too many anti-Nintendo threads started by people who are clearly Sony fanboys not just on this site, but all over the internet.  The 3DS starts off with slow sales after it's launch, and Sony fanboys are all over it calling the system a failure, or a gimmicky niche piece of crap and what have you.  The Vita launches to disappointing sales, and the Sony fanboys run for cover saying that ALL systems have weak post-launch numbers and actually start pointing to 3DS sales trends to back-up their argument.  How can you laugh at the first few months of 3DS's sales, and then turn around and use that data to claim that your own favorite system's sales are normal??  Sony posts billion dollar losses for 4 consecutive years and no one bats an eyelash.  Nintendo posts a loss last year for the first time since the early 80's (that's 3 consecutive decades of profits) and Sony fanboys are all over it claiming that Nintendo will be a 3rd party developer soon.  I find Sony fanboys to be THE MOST annoying in my experience.  And judging by the fact that they have the clear majority in this poll with over 30% of the vote and a 10% gap over 2nd place, I'd have to say that most of the people who have read this thread agree.
