After 20 years, I'm no longer a Nintendo fanboy and might never be again

^I am focusing on the final paragraph here. My argument is that people who support a company during its "weakest" days should be the first to jump in joy when it leads the market again.

Otherwise it's like "being an Arsenal fan and whining to no end when they (eventually) win the premier league because "only one English player is in the regular starting lineup".

Either that or most of those self defined Nintendo fanboys are plastic fans or worse.

 

Why?  People supported Nintendo during the weaker days for the sole reason that they made kickass games, this gen they don't.  This gen they use the same IPs but the quality of games has gone down.  This may make them a big hit with casuals but the reason I liked them doesn't exist this gen.

 

 

To who posted about Nintendo not changing...just the gamer.  Sorry that is crap.  Their games have been dumbed down or had the difficulty majorly decreased.

Proof, please. Maybe i just suck horribly, but i found Mario Kart Wii just as difficult as Double Dash (and slightly moreso than DS), Mario Galaxy was on the level with Mario Sunshine, Metroid Prime 3 was easier than MP2, but most can agree that's a good thing, and MP3 was also level with MP1. Twilight Princess's dungeons were more confusing than WindWaker's, even if there was less danger in combat, Radiant Dawn was a good 2-3x harder than Path of Radiance, and many of the achievements in Brawl are harder than the hardest of what Melee had to offer.
