The bolded is the best indication you've entirely missed the point of what E3 is about.
I own both the PS4 and the Xbox One. Sony and Microsoft aren't interested in selling me their console anymore. In terms of 'winning E3' they are gunning for people who have not yet bought their console.
Lets say that right now purchasing intent for the rest of the generation looks like this (the numbers are designed to show a shift only, are pulled entirely out of my ass, and are not to be read as a prediction):
PS4: 45%
Xbone: 35%
Wii U: 20%
If those numbers change after E3 to the below...
PS4: 40%
Xbone: 35%
Wii U: 25%
Then Sony has lost E3, Nintendo has won E3, and Microsoft has held its own at E3.
Coming back to the beginning, those who own multiple consoles, or those who one one and never intend to purchase another are broadly irrelevant to any of the big three's assessment. The premise of this thread is relevant only to the individual sense of victory (which will be largely determined by the confirmation bias mentioned in my earlier post) and is entirely detached from the actual reason E3 exists.
