Nintendo vs. all

Hahah...

Seriously though if anyone hates a game just cause its on a certain system, you happen to not like, slap yourself around for a minute. Please.

Lol good one.

I say there are many alliances.

Nfanboy, Mfanboy, Sfanboy, NMfanboy, NSfanboy, MSfanboy, Wiifanboy, DSfanboy, 360fanboy, PS3fanboy, PSPfanboy, Wii360fanboy, WiiPS3fanboy, WiiDSfanboy, WiiPSPfanboy, 360PS3fanboy, 360DSfanboy, 360PSPfanboy, PS3DSfanboy, PS3PSPfanboy, DSPSPfanboy, and so on.

Plus we have the average people.

Many of those wouldn't really be "alliances" now would they? Maybe factions.

Anyway, I agree that the OP simplifies things way too much. For instance there is no "360 uber alles" crowd, probably because they're mostly beaten into submission by blatant hardware faults.
There's no Wii-will-rock-you mob, disdaining all others as too expensive/too broken/not enough Mario.
There's no PS3/Wii alliance saying "buy for pure games and buy for pure power, nevermind the broken middle ground."
And as Xeo says, that's not even counting the handhelds or PC.

If you try to analyze the various factions, forum posters are as balkanized as anyone else. But I do think that the strongest faction of all, at least here on VGChartz, are the reasonable people capable of seeing the faults and strengths of all the consoles. (Except the DS which has no faults LOLOLOLOLjk)
