Not quite ALKO.

Your "Atarians" are also somewhat anti-Nintendo themselves being as Nintendo took over the console world from them. You find them on the SERIOUS retro-kick on various websites on the internet. Atari Age Forums and stuff like that. Homebrew gamers, arcades rebuilders and historians in general. Some play the Plug & Play titles seen in Radio Shack and other such places. Some of them accept Nintendo and some of them accepted Sony. You'll find some "Boxians" were Atarians as well or raised around an "Atarian". XBox is the first American system of prominence in decades so some of XBox's base comes from this.

"Amigans" are similarly analagous to some of the snobbery of some of the "Boxians" as well. "Amigans" are more found as PC Gamers which also crosses over into "Boxian" territory. But PC Gamers of this type actually look down on all console gaming as inferior just like the "Amigans/Commodorians" did over 2 decades ago. Curiously some of this type actually like Nintendo's Wii because it's so different from other consoles.

"NeoGeons" are like Atarians in some ways. They probably built up old arcades they liked and relive their consol arcade days through emulation on the computer. They float in and out of territory not loyal or disloyal to anyone just looking for the kind of gaming experience they want to recapture.

"3DOans" either did like theabove mentioned groups or dropped out of gaming altogether for other hobbies.

"NECFxans" are like NeoGeoans mostly and can be like 3DOans.

What happened to the "Odysseyans", ALKO. I'd like to hear your take on it.
