I'm not about to get in this argument, but I want to address one totally peripheral thing that was said:
Even Sega couldn't match this hardware wise. They always followed Nintendo's lead.
This is not really true. The Sega CD, for one thing, may not have been a great success, but it clearly shows that Sega knew which way the industry was going to go without having to take any cues from Nintendo.
But the biggest thing that Sega did a really good job on, that no one else did -- especially Nintendo -- until the Xbox came out, is online gaming. Even the Genesis had a service that let you play games for a monthly fee over your cable TV system, and the Saturn had proper online play (or so I've heard). Dreamcast had better online despite its short run than the PS2 EVER did, and it was only a natural progression of what Sega had been doing for so long.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
