WTF !?
Zelda: TP has sold 6 million copies, it is one of the most sucessful ( sale-wise) Zelda game.
SMG too sold very well.
BTW I agree with Noname. To me seems the author of the articles is well informed about what Nintendo did but instead to think that was the rest of the industry to be left behind by Nintendo and its paradigm shift, he thought that was Nintendo that has changed in worse.
The situation is really easy if you are open minded and like the new set of values brought by the paradigm shift then you like the way pursuited by Nintendo otherwise , even if you are a long-life Nintendo fan, you will not be glad.
This isn't a matter about Nintendo itself but about two distinct and opposed ideology/set of values.
