I sincerely hope Sony didn't lose too much money on the PS3 Slim launch.

oh you actually admitted you hated sony... why may i ask did you get unlucky last gen with the ps2 or something.
either way there is no reason to say you hope sony loses money, i mean really it helps out nintendo if they still are in the competition because that way nintendo will keep on trying to make good titles, if any one console is just dominating by itself the company can become arrogant and rely to much on re-iterated games, i think all those party games are a very good example of just this, people will get fed up of them eventually.

I hated Sony for the PS1-PS2 gens: they didn't have the best console, but they won the past two generations because of factors like piracy (you couldn't pirate the GC until the last year), multimedia (more than games), buying exclusives and so on...i admitt now that the PS2 library is one of the greatest ever, but it was not a so great console to exclude xbox and GC from the competition...But now I think the problem is the people, not the console: just like now some people buy Wii just because they ear the name (without trying it), the same thing happened last gen, and there were so many people that thought PS2 was the only console on market.

About your think of Sony in the market as a bonus for Nintendo, you're right saying that in this way Nintendo will do more great thing, but they've done a lot this gen, and who admitted that? I see only people saying: "Ps3 has Killzone, Infamous, Uncharted, X360 has Halo, Forza, Fable, Wii has Wii Music, Wii Sports, Wii Play". I hate that! There are great games like SSBB, SMG (SMG2), MP3, TLoZ: TP and a lot are coming: Sin and Punishment, the new Zelda, the new Metroid, two Marios, Pikmin, the rumors about new past glories (Starfox, Punchout, F Zero); and the tird party support! But only Wii fans see those games, the majority of people think that Wii is childish and as ONLY crappy games (i admit that there are a lot of shovelwer but the same thing happened with ps2, just that its library was bigger).
