Are you a fanboy/girl for a particular console or video game company? Have you ever been?
I used to be a huge fanboy for Nintendo. I started with the NES and only bought Nintendos after that. I wouldn't have a bar about the PlayStations and the Segas when they came out and my friends were raving on about them. I remember when the Xbox first came onto the scene I was so angry to see it on shelves and selling so well.
Even though it was a great game, it was hard to convince my friends that Wind Waker wasn't...kiddy and Nintendo didn't only make kiddy games. Other games like Banjo Kazooie and Donkey Kong 64 didn't help me.
I still have an admiration for Nintendo and will always love them and buy their products, but I'm way more open now days to the other consoles.
