I've always found this idea kinda strange. I have a PS2, but that doesn't mean I will ever get a PS3. I would if I had more time and money. As it is, I don't have enough time to play everything I want to on my two systems.
But, I find it strange that some people think everyone is bound to a certain manufacturer. I do belive that the majority of console sales in the world are not to the hardcore gamers (those that spend a lot of their time and energy on games). I think the "casual" gamers that owned PS2 are getting Wii. I don't believe the "casual" crowd feels bound to a certain brand, only the hardcore does.
And on top of that, to some people, Nintendo has the bigger name. Friends I have call any system a Nintendo, including their PS2s. My wife calls our Xbox 360 a Nintendo. Often when I correct any of them, they respond with "Oh, I don't care." And actually, their responce helps support my belief that the "casual" crowd does not care about what brand they have.
