Nintendo, with DS and Wii, has done more than anyone else in recent years to shake the industry out of what it perceives as this torpor, and drag it kicking and screaming towards entertainment adulthood. The extreme reaction to this is, in these terms, pure teen angst.
Or the angst that people who have played a couple of games in their live and are underwhelmed by Fishing and Game Party games won't get another game worth playing till 2010?
I think the article is weird. There are of course people who really only care if Nintendo "succeeds". The real fanboys. They should be more than happy with Nintendo's direction because it provides amazing sales.
But people who want to actually play the next Zelda or Mario and who do not like Rabbits have the right to be annoyed.
