 Here's why it's a big deal;

Not everybody can afford multiple consoles. Hell, if I had the money, I'd buy all three, but having a fixed budget limits my entertainment options. 

I'm sure the situation applies to many other people. See: low-ish ps3 numbers. 


I whole heartedly agree, also, even if it was feasable, buying all three solves nothing either, its not a simple matter of the games before the systems. For example, I don't want Sony's vision of gaming's future to ever come true, I don't like their business philosophy, I don't like their low quality constructed products, so buying theirs along with the Wii and 360 doesn't solve anything. I want something I'll be able to play for ever, not a UMD that will fall apart six months after I buy it new, a PSP that doesn't work after one small drop, a PS2 eventually dying out because of its plastic drive parts and poor design resulting in its library of games now sitting useless to me. This generation is more than just who has the games, its more than owning all three, this isn't the days of Nintendo, Sega and NEC, its about taking a stand for what you want the future of gaming to be. PC-gaming is fine but I don't want to buy a console to do a half assed job of it (i.e. PS3 and to a lesser degree, 360) and with Sony claiming the PS4 won't even have a physical game format (you download all the games), I'm not buying into that shit, Sony has showed us time and time again they don't have the best interests of the consumer or gaming in mind. Microsoft is at least making a concerted effort to deliver a product for the consumer and Nintendo has made a complete turn around with what looks to be their two most successful products ever, the Wii and DS.
