I'm going to have to go with Nintendo.

Why?

1. Many of my favorite franchises. Zelda, Mario, Metroid, F-Zero, Starfox, Donkey Kong. I grew up with such titles and still enjoy them today, both new and old.

2. No achievements! (WARNING: I am about to offend everyone who likes achievements) Achievements are the lamest fill-that-pathetic-void-in-your-sad-life concept yet dreamt up by the companies that put that void there to begin with. They just pop up every now and then to annoy me. I do not care, just let me play in peace.

3. No risk of going out of business. R&D and early production put them in the red every once in a while, but most years they're well in the black and have plenty to keep them afloat. Microsoft and Sony, while profitable in gaming, are bleeding uncontrollably elsewhere. I worry about Sony, as they're my #2. Microsoft's exclusives do not interest me in the least.


So Microsoft is bleeding uncontrollably elsewhere? Really?


Well it's a bit of an exaggeration. I do that.  It's fun.  But Windows 8 is flopping, Windows phones are lagging, they ARE in the red even though they have plenty of reserve to keep them afloat for a long time.  Sony's situation is certainly more dire.


No offense but you obviously havent been paying attention to the financial world

MS posted MASSIVE profits in pretty much every quarter lately..... they arent in the red at all......
