after 2 and 1/2 years, why all the Wii hate still?

I can understand people being hostile towards Wii and Nintendo, but it really baffles me when companies like THQ spill utter nonsense and insults about the platform and its fanbase.

I don't know if it was the same guy, but 2 people from THQ were badmouthing the Wii. This guy said it was a nightmare, and the one before him said that he'd make more minigames if Deadly Creatures failed (which it did, would've on any console).

 

Once again, the minigame cash-in hasn't worked either, since Big Family Games (I didn't make that up, THQ just came out with that) only sold 6k first week. Unless it grows Godzilla legs, it would just be proof that not all that glitters minigame is instant gold.

 

THQ should know better than to let people like this speak for their company because it looks extrememly unprofessional. I know it doesn't reflect the views of everyone at THQ, but when you are in a Position of Power, everything you do reflects the sentiments of your company/faction/party/ etc,.

 

Exactly my thoughts; you cannot outright insult and bash the people and demographic you plead to for their money. If the market doesn't react to your product, while it reacts on other products (reacting would be an understatement in case of SSBB, MKWii, etc), maybe it's not the market's fault, rather your own.
