I have always prefered a single company and always liked to see that company succeed. But I must admit while I have wanted to see companies brought down a notch going the way of Sega I have never wished on any company.
I want to see all three manufacturers on equal playing field. I want to see a day when their market shares are almost identical and all three companies can produce the best games that they are capable of without worrying about having to compete with one another. It would be awsome if all three companies made billions and invested those billions back into the industry giving us more and more great games.
On a side note I want Sega to come back as well, I was heart broken when they went down. Despite not being my favorite company I liked their games and I loved how they contributed to the industry. Infact I even miss Atari and Intellivision and such. But of course we wouldn't have the market potential to support all these companies all having consoles.
So no I don't think any of the big three should go the way of Sega. With Apple coming in if the industry doesn't expand and companies start being threatened with bankrupcy I will obviously have my favorites that I don't want to see go down. But any of them going down would be a shame.
