What's up with Nvidia they seem to have a awful bad grudge against the PS4

There biggest rival, AMD, is going to make money off of all three game consoles this generation. The Wii U, PS4, and "720" all feature AMD Gpus. Last gen the Wii and 360 had AMD GPU's. The PS3 was the only console with an Nvidia GPU. Now Sony has gone with AMD. They seem bitter.  Truthfully, I don't think they are bitter. I think they just trying to downplay game console business because it isn't a source of revenue for them.

Let me understand this.  So last gen the 360 and Wii had AMD/ATI GPUs and AMD is still in the red.  Now AMD will have a lock on all three major console OEMs and people feel that AMD is not going to make a profit.  If history is to be believed, AMD probably are not pricing their chips right and still we be in the red.  Going for the lowest bid but not being able to make a profit does not sound like a sound business stragety.

It appears to me that Nvidia has other interest and yes, whatever they are doing will be a competitor to the next gen consoles.  The key is will their solution be better which only time will tell.  There is no bitterness going on here, this is business and competitiors are always looking for the marketing advantage.
