There are fanboys for all three companies who act like all that WOULD happen to them, though.

And really, that's my operating definition of a fanboy as opposed to someone who's just a fan; someone who treats their fandom as religious evangelism as opposed to...you know, liking a certain company's games/consoles.

I mainly gravitate towards Sony, but I have no problem criticizing them for their stupid decisions or admitting their fuck-ups (which they had many of this gen).

I don't mind being called a "FanBoy" of Nintendo. It's the truth. Does this mean that I can't criticize them? No. (Which I hope is apparent...) Does this mean that I can't play/try other companies games? No. 

I think this term has been spun out of control at some points. Though, you are right that there are some crazy FanBoys.
