Well I too have owned every single console (Except VirtualBoy). I have been a die hard Nintendo fan since day one. I mean the first game I played was MarioBros on the Atari2600 and DonkeyKong after that. I love Nintendo to death.
But as you pointed out Nintendo isn't targetting us fans and die hard supporters right now. I don't think you should sell your 360 because to be honest I don't think Nintendo will permenantly abandon us. The problem at the moment is , at a time when not a single third party is creating a game worth playing Nintendo for the first time since the NES is giving us nothing to play for months at a time. When Nintendo finally gives us something to play its WiiMusic or WiiPlay or WiiSports:Resort.
I myself am simply playing 360 till Nintendo gives me something I want again. Animal Crossing , The Conduit, Disaster:DayOfCrisis are three games I'm looking forward too!
But to be honest I think most of us die hard Nintendo fans being perfectly honest are dissapointed in how Nintendo has handled this new casual market. They are changing their usual hard core franchise oriented fanness into a innovative free thinking new franchise producing machine. But these new franchises aren't the new Pikmins of Today they are targetting non gamers.
If Nintendo doesn't give me games to play next year and I don't see a new game from a favorite franchise in the next 3-years. I won't be buying Nintendo's next console. But with A Pikmin3 already promised and a new Zelda and Donkey Kong in the works.
I can honestly say I'm still going to be a Nintendo fan next generation. Don't sell your Wii as you said yourself your looking forward to Conduit. Their will be better games coming next year thats a promise, if their isn't I'll renounce Nintendo myself! But that won't happen because Pikmin3 comes next year heck yah!
