Which fanboys should be the most feared?
My choice is zelda fans, a particular breed of Nintendo fanboy. They are quite willing to proclaim Nintendo consoles the most holy of holies right after a zelda title releasal without trying other consoles. I have found the only non-Nintendo console they usually have owned was an Atari. Another problem with this formidable opponent is their sheer size and their zeal to share their kind of "wisdom" through sites and boards. You simply can never shut them up or move them on to another topic.
Maybe I should not blame them for being fanboys. Most of them are young and probably cannot afford the other competing consoles. In my day though I didn't have a rabid fascination for a console because of just one game or series.
OT:Most vintage/retro/classic gamers I have talked to have played Alundra 1 and seem to enjoy it mainly because of how it is quite like LTTP. I was surprised that none of the zelda fans I have talked to admitted to playing it or even just knowing of it. I am pretty sure they would enjoy playing it but their loyalty to Nintendo prevents this.
