The thing is, something has happened this generation that hasn't happened for quite some time. Namely, that the three consoles aren't just similar products. Each has taken gaming in different directions, and embodies a different philosophy on what gaming should be: Nintendo's fun entertainment, Sony's sensory extravaganza, or Microsoft's hormonal rush. This hasn't really happened since the SNES vs. Genesis days.
So why do people care? Simple: the losers in a given generation tend to copy the winner next time around (after all, it worked for the winner). People follow and defend console sales because they believe that whichever console wins this generation, that console's philosophy will become dominant, which means more games of that type.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
