I don't care per say

I dont really care which one sells the most though i do like following the numbers too.  Honestly i care more about the software being sold than hardware.  In fact the reason i joined this site is because i wanted to see Killzone 2 succeed, so i came to this site weekly for Killzone 2 numbers.

Any ways beyond software sales ive noticed i dont care about who sells the most hardware wise though i do want to see them all succeed as well.  For example XBO vs PS4 vs WiiU i dont really care which one sells the most, but in the coming years i may have an opinion on who i thought deserved the most.

Controversial comment so ignore this part if you dont want to read it.

Though i must admit i was a little annoyed with Wii selling the most this gen when I honestly felt that the PS3 deserved to have sold the most because all their efforts in first party exclusives and X360 2nd for changing the online world.  Casual gamers are gamers too but the Wii just kind of shunned a lot of long time nintendo fans including myself.  Even though there was still plenty for hardcore gamers there was also plenty missing for hardcore gamers as well.

Respectfully disagree about the Wii part. I was born a Nintendo fan and the Wii gave me hundreds of hours of joy. Whether it was deep, challenging single-player experiences like Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, and Twilight Princess, or it was addictive local multiplayer experiences like Wii Sports, Mario Kart, and Smash Bros., Wii had something to scratch every itch. Plus it opened up the market to so many new video game fans, young and old, male and female. It was a true revolution, and it deserved to "win" the generation.

As to your question, I don't mind which console sells the most, but I'm heavily invested in which consoles are profitable enough to stay in the industry. And that's all of them. I like having homes for Halo, Killzone, and Zelda. I don't want to see any of those series disappear or fall under the control of publishers who have no idea what to do with them.
