I can relate; Wii was my favourite system of the 7th generation as well, which did mean I had to put up with all manner of elitist losers acting like being a Wii owner meant you were inferior to the "glorious PS360 master race."

Ultimately though, it's their loss; I got to enjoy great games on my Wii that they missed out on cos they were too immature to put aside childish console wars. In the end, if you played what you wanted and enjoyed it, then you're smarter than they were, and better off.

How do you know they missed out on anything? That's subjective too. Gamers tend to be well aware of what is available on other systems, sometimes they just don't care for those things.

Because the kind of people I was referring to are the kind who'd turn a blind eye if it wasn't on the "cool" system. If you're a hobbyist gamer, in most cases, (obviously not all, subjectivity and all, but most) there's at least something on the Wii worth your time. That era however was sadly dominated by a lot of toxic dismissive attitiudes and adolescent posturing from the folks who referred to themselves as "hardcore gamers."
