No, the difference is, Nintendos Fanbase is a LOT lower than PS/Xbox ! And its that low for a good reason, because they fail to deliver (imo) like Xbox/PS ! And if you think there were no Nintendo "Fanboys" saying they won E3, than i dont know in what World you are living. EVERY Brand is having "Fanboys" and the difference is Nintendos Fanbase is the lowest. Its like Apple/Samsung are the big two in phones and then LG, HTC, Sony or whatever are far behind and thats it.

That was'nt my point. I wanted to show the differences between the two companies approaching E3. For Sony it seem important to ''win e3'' so they show 2018 games. My point is that Nintendo could have also shown 2018 games if they wanted to, but it's not their way of approaching the show. Offcaurse they are fanboys for every platforms downplaying what other platforms announced and claiming that their console of choice won. But that was'nt my point and I think I was clear about what I thought about these fanboys.
As for the number of fanbase. I think you are wrong. Nintendo is really beloved by it's fans and you can't judge the number of fanboys purely by the number of console sold. You seem to jump to the conclusion that WiiU sold less that Xone/Ps4, therefore they have less fanboys, wich is false. How do you argue the fact that Nintendo first party games usualy sell more than other first party games? You also can't forget the 3DS and Wii.
I have a Xbox One, and I'm not a Microsoft fanboy. Just because a console did'nt achieve mainstream sucess does'nt mean it doesnt have alot of fanboys. The grand majority of ppl who own a console are'nt fans. The majority of sales commes from mainstream audience that picked a console, that does'nt make them fans or fanboys. Wii sold so many units, not because Nintendo had more fans than it did with the GC. WiiU did'nt achieve mainstream success but because of that, one could argue that everyone who bought it must be a Nintendo fan, while most ppl who bought a PS4/Xone did'nt buy those cause they were fans, but because they happened to chose that console for one reason or a other. Proof of this is how Xbox 360 dominated ps3 in the US for most of the previous gen. Now PS4 is dominating, not because Microsoft lost their milions of fans to sony, but because the VAST majority of ppl who buys console just buy a product, plain and simple, and they chose a product on reasons other than fanboyism.
3DS sold alot, Nintendo first party games sells historicaly better than other first party games. Nintendo's booth and Zelda was the most popular thing at E3 (most coverage and atendees going to it with a 4h line just to play a demo despite Nintendo have sooo many demo units) And finaly nintendo side products sell way more than other companies. By side products I mean Tshirts, shoes, plushies, hats.... You can't tell me that Microsoft and Sony sell more T-shirts based on their franchises than Nintendo. I would'nt be suprised to learn that Zelda products alone beats all M$/Sony franchise related products combined. Fine, maybe not, but still... And add to that Mario, Pokémon. How do you explain ALL this I just mentioned on this paragraph if they don't have atleast a competing number of fanboys?(if not more). While your only argument seems to be that WiiU sucked. (if you have more arguments, you can feel free to let me know). And if by ''fanbase'' you meant users or clients, than still 3DS+WiiU > Other companies.
My goal is not to convince anyone that ''my company has more fanboys than your's'' since I really don't care about that, my point is that their is no way of saying wich company has more fanboys.
