Are you "loyal" to any one company?

@Soriku: I'll see if this if this answers your question:

I most definitely disagree when it comes to which system had the most high quality games. Gamers seem to have this false notion that the console that sold the most is the best console. To most, it doesn't even matter what games were on the console as long as it outsold the other consoles. Take the PS1, for example. Despite it handily outselling the N64, the N64 easily beats it in terms of quality. However, the majority seems to think that the PS1 had the better games. Super Mario 64 was easily better than any game that ever graced the PS1 by a wide margin; The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was, too! The PS1, on the other hand, had solid games. However, there's not a single game I can think of on the PS1 that's an all-time great, and unlike the N64, none of it's games could stand up in todays standards. From a gameplay perspective, the PS1 dosn't come close to matching the N64's quality.

I saw similar a similar scenario between the Gamecube and the Playstation 2. Although the PS2 wasn't the same piece of shit that the PS1 was, it still could not match the pure quality of the Gamecube's best games. Most of the PS2's high profile games fell into the same all-hype-no-gameplay category that the PS1's best fell into. I'm sorry, but Grand Theft Auto is not a 95% quality game. The PS2 had many games like this -- games that aren't up to par with the scores given to them. I doubt any gamer in their right mind will tell you Grand Theft Auto is better than Wind Waker or that Tekken is on par with Super Mario 64. Most of the PS2's library is consists of overrated, over hyped games games that are merely the cool thing to play.

I see the same thing happening this gen, though this time it's from Nintendo instead of Sony. The Playstation 3 is easily capable out performing the Wii. I'll put it like this: Play a Wii game, and then review it as if it were a Playstation 3 game. Obviously, you'll end up seeing the Wii for what it is: a low quality gaming system that's not meant for playing high quality games. Instead, it's meant for mini-games like Wii Sports. Games will always have shallow and mediocre controls on the Wii because of the Wii-mote. Why would I favor a console that plays games even worse than it's last-gen counterpart? The Playstation 3 is doing exactly what the Gamecube and N64 did, and that's exactly what I like.
