Do you still seeing the Wii as the "kiddy" console?

It seems many of the HD fanboys have a secret love for the Wii, what else would explain their near constant trolling in the Nintendo forum. You know how often I read the PS360 forum? Maybe one a month, ya know how often I post, I pretty sure I never have. Why would I read their forums if I don't own the system?Why would I try to annoy them? I would say its maturity, ya know like the real kind not just buy M rated games. I think they all (the fanboys) just secretly want a Wii and are really sad to know that gaming is coming back to the masses and they can't have their little club anymore.

Long time/new gamers choose Wii, new gamers in the 13-25 crowd have chosen PS360. Be happy and get over it.

 

but when it comes to Sony financial status everybody are welcome to bash Sony

You make an interesting point, but I think you are missunderstanding the reason people do it. People vent their rage about Sony and use the financial difficulty as an excuse to do so, just like the RRoD with the 360 and "kiddy" with the Wii. These companies are not saint folks if I must I will list how they have all screwed us.

Nintendo:

-Years of abuse of 3rd parties in the 90's

-Game Censorship in the 90's

-The "we know better than you attitude" which is still around to some extent (Online multiplayer until recently was a great example- and friend codes still are).

-Lack a viable storage option, and overpriced accesories.

-Inabuility to withhold licensing from shovelware- the inverse of what used to be true.

 

M.S.

-A rushed HW job leading to a faulty console (thankfully freely repaired)

-An interest to leverage a PC monopoly to dominate ever product category under the sun.

-The early dishonesty about  360 failure rates.

-Baggage brought from outside videogaming, things like buggy software, and the Vista launch

 

Sony

- A need to lie about the capabulities of their hardware prior to launch (PS2, PS3)

- Comments like "get a job for a PS3" and we "own the industry"

-The rootkit fiasco, and other baggage brought from outside the area of gaming.

 

When a fanboy sees an oppertunity to be a dick, they take it. I'm just happy to say that unlike many of the people in this thread, I don't take my time to go on their lawn and piss in their driveway. That my friends is the definition of immature, not to mention just pathetic.
