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.

Aww, man. They made something like 5 billion profit last quarter. Profits are not marked in red, they are in black...
