I vote for nintendo not because this is a nintendo forum ( The only nintendo consdle I own is a ds/3ds/3dsxl My home console is a xbox 360) its because I really do like the games nintendo produces Sony and micrsoft just seem to be copies of eachother now the 360 and ps3 are about the same graphical power (Yes I went there) while nintendo always had the lower res graphics I always like their games and consoles,

My favorite would be Sony. The first console I ever got was the PlayStation, and I had some of the best times on that console, Crash, Spyro... that very system would offer many hours of digital entertainment and would shape my game interests to what they are today. And then I got a PS2 for my birthday. I mean seriously; look at all of these FLIPPING GAMES, I AM DROWNING IN THEM. The thing still gets used every now and then, although with the PS2 Classics being released on the PlayStation Store, it might just be put away. And finally, the PS3. It wasn't long before I was downloading a bunch of games and trying to score trophies. It's kind of like the PS2 days; the PS3 is what I play almost all the time.

Are you saying this as a joke? I think you are but I can't tell.
Also this is not sarcasm. I am actually interested in your answer.
Of course, the Ouya people makes AWESOME things, I mean, who doesn't want crappy games on a bigger screen than their crappy original screen?

Yes, it's a joke. The thing's not even out yet, nobody would have a legitimate reason to have them as their favorite.

I chose "Other". I use Steam on a custom built PC running Windows 7 for my gaming hardware.
Oh my god! You're right! Now they are my new favorite company, and all because of that console's name...

Nintendo till the very bitter game-over! Why? several reasons.
1.) Product Quality: Between the wii, xbox 360, and ps3, the wii had the lowest failure rate, plus Nintendo handhelds can be dealt alot of damage before being considered out of the game!
2.) Customer Service: When I had to send my 3DS in for repairs, the staff were very friendly. Nintendo told me that I would have to wait 3 weeks before I would get my 3DS back. I sent it to them, and 5 days after I mailed it off to them, I got it back fully repaired, and Nintendo payed for everything! Now THAT is customer service!
3.) Product Price: Nintendo is much more affordable than Sony and Microsoft, which is great for those of us on a tight budget!
4.) Genre Selection: When shopping, I find that Nintendo has a wider selection of genres available. While Sony and Microsoft have mostly shooters, which if your not into, poses a slight problem
5.) Most titles on Nintendo's platforms are rated E, while still maintaining a good selection of T and M games for the more mature audience. Sony and Microsoft have much fewer E rated titles and more T to M rated titles, not appealing to as many people.
6.) Online Multi-player: Microsoft(and possibly Sony too. Correct me if I am wrong here) charge a certain amount to use online play! Greedy little piggies! While Nintendo's online play is free. I payed for the console and the games. Is that not enough?
7.) Franchises: Nintendo has many more Iconic and beloved characters than both Sony and Microsoft. Heck, Mario is the face of gaming!
These are my reasons for crowning Nintendo the superior company. Reasons 2,4 qnd 5 are from personal experience. Reason 6 is from my friends experience. Reasons 1,3 and 7 are just fact.

But these reasons you listed basically summaries my views as well, especially 1 and 2. I once dropped my GBA SP and it broke in half. When I sent it into Nintendo it came back 4 days later, fully repaired for no charge. On the other hand, when my first 360 red ringed I had to pay $100 to have it fixed and then they didn't fix it because I put a custom front on the system (which was a Microsoft licensed product.)

Although I don't play Nintendo (not my types of games really) I do think they do the best in the hardware market as they are always doing something new and unique. I loved the Wii controllers for playing Resident Evil 4, for example.
