Some people take Console issues very personally, like it's religion. One company is a blessing from god, while a different company is out to murder their family and tie them up so they can watch.
Like other's said, there really hasn't been a situation like this since Genesis / SNES era. Probably none of the consoles will sell less than 40m lifetime.
Alot of Nintendo fans are very glad that they are at the top, but I also think they are dissatisifed in not getting nearly 100% of the third party support like the PS2. Sometimes I think Nintendo is less in it against Sony than some of it's fanboys.
There are many Sony fans that are pissed because they will "have to share" this generation.
Microsoft fans are probably in the realization that Sony will be staying around. 2007 was supposed to be the year that Halo comes in and sweeps Sony out of the race and gets MGS4 and FF13, which didn't happen.
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
Conservatives: Pushing for a small enough government to be a guest in your living room, or even better - your uterus.
