Because much like any kind of disruption(PS1, NES, Sony Walkman...) the current upstream doesn't see the new direction of the future. They just see the clunky unrefined present, but like the other technologies listed above they become refined, change and improve the industry as a whole.
But the hate will continue because the Wii is the unrefined toddler steps or elementary school play rather than the shakespear works of Hamlet done in London. Just remember the actors of the future will be the well nurtured from that elementary school. The critic rather than encourage the actors of the future are so full of themselves that they are pooping on the future and not seeing anything than their personal high elite standards. They don't account that the play at the school is for everyone(parent) rather than the critic, and the critic also hates and despises that it's not for him. So he just doesn't get it. And doesn't get why all the parents don't share his view on their own kids plays.
Where would we be if it wasn't for the disruption that PS1, NES for gaming and the Walkman for personal audio entertainment? It's always unrefined first.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
