Which brand do you think is the best; Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo.

I personally grew up with a N64 and am a Nintendo fan, but recently switched over to an Xbox. So I'd change my mind to Microsoft. I love the graphics that my 360 provides and just the game play and how the 360 runs is amazing.

What's your favorite brand?

It depends what you are asking for. If this is strictly for gaming consoles then sony wins my vote, but if this includes the whole company then microsoft of course.

I normally love both the Ps3 and 360 but since Microsoft made Vista they pissed me off so my vote goes to Sony.

Ahaha. Well I know the wording is phrased a little oddly, but I meant best brand for next-gen consoles.

The best true video game brand is without a doubt Nintendo. The history, the icons, the effect on culture and the success of video games.

As for the best next/current generation system, that's completely debatable.

Nintendo!!

The games are much better, and the designs of their consoles & the way you play them beat Sony and Microsoft by miles.

I never knew so many people liked Nintendo. I always thought there games to be a bit childish, no offense to anyone who plays them, but they do have good games I enjoy. Although, I really think Mario is well played out by now.. XD

I suppose it depends on the age group ? Nintendo aims for kids and younger teens while Microsoft and Sony are more for Teens and Adult. Potter forums does have a lot of younger teens so I suppose that's why Nintendo is winning.
That and the fact that it's fun but I would still prefer a 360 or ps3 over it. =]

I'm so surprised no one even bothered supporting the ps3, maybe its not yet ready to be called the "next gen PS3"

As I tried to explain in my original post, it depends what the poll is actually asking. It talks about the best brand, not next-gen system. Personally, I think that the Nintendo brand is easily the best based off of history and its iconic games/characters, but would probably vote for the XBox 360 for next-gen system... even though I only own a Wii, and neither a Xbox 360 or PS3.
