I think you only hate it because you aren't thinking of the videogame industry objectively as a business industry. Nintendo has clearly differentiated their product away from the market in which Sony and Microsoft are competing. If this was any other industry I'm sure it would be blatantly obvious.

Look at the price discrepancies of the consoles. Do you think Porsche competes with Honda? No. They're both vehicle companies, but they sell price differentiated products to different target audiences. Therefore, not competitors.
