No but they do make up the vast majority of the early install base which is relevant to the discussion. These people (rightly) shouldnt put up with garbage ports and their spending habits show that. True fanboys will buy those games. The true fanboys sales are reflected in buying garbage just to support "this kind of game" on the platform of their choice. If there were more fanboys for Nintendo, sales of Assasins Creed, Mass Effect 3, Batman and so on would be closer to the million mark than the 50-100k mark. There is so few fanboys that they cant impress 3rd parties with sales on their half assed efforts.
Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.
Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
