See i dont really agree with some of this, just because you are not willing to buy a system just for one game doesnt mean that person isnt a true fan. My firend loves RE, he bought just about all of them. THose weird online ones for PS2 and thsoe silly rail shooters and im not talking about the Wii/PS3 ones either.  But he's not gonna buy a 3DS just for one game. I dont even think he has the funds to do so. But he didnt insuly 3DS with talks of specs, thats were the fanboynish comes from

I think this is more of a debate on what constitutes a real fan, and I agree that it's possible for a real fan to not bash a system and not buy the game their a fan of on a console just for one game.  It really depends on many things, but I think this topic isn't about those people.  It's about the ones who ARE doing the bashing.  

I still think you're missing what Oni's trying to say though. Whether they buy the console or not is not what determines it. What determines it is the reasons for not buying the console and that one game. If it's money, I think we can all understand that. But if its because of specs or some bs like that, then you know the answer to this.
