If the man hates, then let him hate, doesn't mean you have to be harsh on the guy, does shutting him down mean that he'll change his mind? nope. If he believes a certain way then it'll be very difficult to change that opinion.
I personally dislike the Wii, over-reliance on Nintendo's first party because they are too stubborn (some say arrogant) to buy 3rd party support, which in turn hurts it's core gamer group. This burns us even more when Nintendo gets it's best worker to create a (non)game called Wii Music.
It's not about being a money hungry behemoth and moneyhatting, it's about doing whats right by their consumers who have stuck by them through the dark years of the N64 and Gamecube years.
You are correct though, if they did the same thing they did for the last 2 generations, Nintendo would probably be dead by now (or on life support because of DS), but they've replaced hype for graphics with hype for waggle.
People buy the thing because it's supposed to be new and innovative and it's "in" like the apple macs/ipod were "in", not because of X game (which is as bad as the sony/360 fanboys who refuse to buy the other console no matter how good the games library is just because it's from that company).
I love my DS though, just not a huge fan of the way Nintendo approached the Wii (even though it was a brilliant move on their part in terms of making money).
