Exactly! That is why I put my phrase in " marks. I was being sarcastic. They aren't super smooth and perfect which is why I hate it when people diss on Nintendo's online.

PlayStation all the way!

Was Nintendo fan from 1989 - 2005. But dat shit is over. Nintendo died for me with the abomination of a Gameboy known as the DS. And they died even more with the Wii for me. It was just nothing like the Nintendo I knew and grew up with. It was like Bizarro Nintendo, the evil twin of the old Nintendo in the glorious days of the fierce battle against Sega... you know?

I'm simply a gamer. I like all 3. I like Nintendo for classic characters and focus on purely gameplay. I like Microsoft for innovating with online features. I like Sony for taking risks with releasing unique IPs and leading the charge with original games as well as being humble this generation.

I think there is reasons to love each console and each console has great games that people will miss being dedicated to one brand. Anyone who is a fanboy, its their loss but ignorance is bliss.

I dont consider my self a fan of these 3 but the playstation brand always ends up to be my console of choice growing up with videogames


5th gen = PS1, it was best console offering both 2d and 3d games. N64 and saturn offered mostly only one of them thats why they ended up having less games than sony.

6th gen = dont know yet, i used to think ps2 but it was the most ballanced generation when it came to multiplats. Xbox was stronger but the ps2 has more games in total. Nintendo released their component cables in limited quantity so i dont consider spending 130€ to have good video quality while ps2 and xbox have them for way cheaper 10-20€. Dreamcast same story with vga adapter its also weaker anyways and has less games.

7th gen= PS3, free online its a no brainer. Yes 360 had a bit better multiplats but paying for online makes their versions inferior. The wii was out of question, because obviously was underpowered and most of their games had only motion controls.

8th gen= PS4, sony decided to follow MSs example to charge people for multiplayer but at least their console is stronger than the others so i will again end up going for sony.

I like Xbox more but I do like PS and Nintendo too.

Not true in my country. It seems Sony is out to screw us Aussies. I have had some customer service issues as have other people I know. Some of my friends speak Japanese though and when they couldn't get a result from Sony Australia they would write to Sony Japan. Sony Australia would then basically bend over backwards to make them happy but it's a shame it has to escalate that far.

Anyway, I'm a Nintendo fan this gen. I was a 360 fan last gen. A Nintendo & PS fan (mainly for GTA) during the PS2 era and pretty much an exclusive PC gamer between then and the SNES. Before that I had a NES but liked the Sega stuff too.

I dunno. I guess I like whatever appeals to me the most at the time. I'm a bit of a slut.

I'm a fan of all. But I'm mostly a fan of Xbox

Generally Nintendo's games, because I keep returning to them and they usually feel they're the most 'fun'. Pure, innocent fun and clever gameplay. They also have a couple of my favorite franchises and favorite games of all time.

That definitely doesn't mean I'm exclusive though. I play a lot on PC as well (however I only play typical PC genres on PC) and on a PlayStation usually, but that depends on what console gives me the best value and games for my tastes. In fact, in Smeag's Top 50 Thread last month, I have more non-Nintendo games than Nintendo games and PC wins as most featured platform, though the Top 10 is dominated by Nintendo games. Also, neither my #2 favorite console nor my #3 is a Nintendo console.

Still, like I said, Nintendo's are the ones I'll go back to, and the ones I've been buying the longest and the ones where I buy the most sequels. I've been familiar with their games ever since late 3rd gen/early 4th gen and they don't get stale or repetitive. Having said that, should they ever stop making consoles, I'd just go wherever Zelda goes .

Playstation is for life. I buy every Playstation on DAY ONE, or as soon as it's available.
I also like Nintendo, I loved N64 and GC, but I lost interest with Wii and WiiU. Hope Next Nintendo Home Console will surprise me again.

Was a SEGA kid growing up, moved to Nintendo with the GC. Have owned all Sony's consoles and recently got an Xbox One, but none have the same greatness as Nintendo. I always seem to go back to them.
