I bought a PS3 at launch (camped out), didn't get a Wii in June '07.
I was sure Sony would win, and wanted them to do better than MS. I felt MS is already in our lives too much with windows, office, etc, and Sony had provided me with 2 great consoles in the past. To be honest, I always liked Ninty consoles the best, and even loved the purple lunchbox.
Now I no longer have a PS3 (had no patience to wait through the ridiculous drought of no games), but Wii60. I am glad Wii will probably win the generation, and really don't care who comes in second. I think the 360 had a great 2007, but Sony is going to take second in 2008.
Even though they won the HD format war, it really bothers me that Sony was willing to risk it's goodwill and reputation with gamers to push a media player format. This has ended up in their favor, but might not have. And I still think MS is too intrusive in our lives.
It's also nice to see a 3,000 employee company not only compete but win against 2 huge corporations that are much larger than just their gaming divisions. It means the littler guy (and yes Ninty IS the David) can compete against these 2 Goliath giant companies.
