There is definitely more to list that I want, but that's my main focus there.

I go where the devs go, and it just so happens that Nintendo and Sony are my favorite development houses. Thus, I own a wii, ds, ps3, and psp.

Though when I was younger I was different. I bought an N64 at launch because it was "the new Nintendo!"

Well I was given an XBox and I really enjoyed it. I am also a member of Microsoft Expert Zone and I got two XBox 360s (Pro) which I purchased for a $100 each. I think the 360 is the best console this generation so it worked out great.

Let me see:

Atari: 2600
Nintendo: FAMICOM, SNES, N64, Gamecube (for a short time), Wii, GB, GBA, DS
Sega: Megadrive, Dreamcast, Game Gear
Sony: PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP
Microsoft: Windows (hey, that counts as platform for gaming)

1st factor in common: Games, i luv Ninty/Sony/Sega 1st party games, and the 3rd party has been on either a Ninty or Sony platform (except this gen with the 360 but most of the titles are multi or going to be multi, and that includes PC)...

The other factor is reliability, i have no complains with Ninty and Sony consoles, and i had one problem with the Megadrive but nothing serious...

The only company I do that for now is Nintendo. I used to do that with Sega as well. That is because I can count on their first party development teams to deliver quality games. With MS and Sony, I have to wait to see what third parties do. Since I can get by without Sony and MS first party games.
