I don't agree with calling people "fanboys" in that we agree, but you have to admit that your comments were really tainted in a fanboy-like manner with the way you were expressing your opinion as absolute truth. Specially the comment about Nintendo making the best first party games.
If you were to say that Nintendo has made the more critically acclaimed games of the current (8th) gen, I would agree with you, since I think metacritic would back up your claim, I'm not sure since I haven't checked for every exclusive released so far. As it stands, you expressed your opinion as if it was an absolute fact and anyone in disagreement just had bad taste. I have a problem with that.

At least there is someone in this thread I can come to some agreement with. They were meant generally to be stern comments. People will argue that bar none Nintendo defines every genre they tapped in to. But I look at it like this, if you want story telling you go with the movie company (Sony). If you want a large expansive library of indie and normal games you go with Microsoft. If you want genre defining titles with unique twist you go with Nintendo. My comments pretty much come in line with people who support all platforms. Considering I have used a PS4 controller I feel like i can break it which makes it feel like a toy (though in reality all game consoles are toys). My Ps3 controller (as grimey as it is) also feels like I could break it, but when it was new it felt solid.

I respect the fact that you give each company some credit, we are in agreement there, however, I disagree with the bolded sentence since I don't think you can speak for everyone who supports all platforms and also on the comments you have given for Sony, MS and Nintendo. All three of them have given huge contributions to the gaming landscape, Sony both in gameplay and story-telling and MS in more than indie games with their online focus, though I would agree with you in the fact that Nintendo has had the more success in their multi-genre approach, no arguments from me there. Just to share my two cents, my favorite first party titles for the PS systems are God of War and the Crash Bandicoot games. I don't think anyone could state they are story telling-focused games, their focus is mainly gameplay. So Sony has been and can be more than a story telling-focused company.
With regards to your comments on the controllers, I can't speak for the DS4 since I don't own a PS4 yet, but I'm quite satisfied with my DS3 controllers and I find the DS design to be the most comfortable for me since the PS1 era.
