Malstrom sounds more and more like a jerk the more I read.

exactly.  He gets away with it because he's saying exactly what Wii fans want to hear, so they tell you to look at the points he's making and ignore what an absolute ass he sounds like.

Malstrom reminds me of Hitler, I'm not kidding, back when I only had a Wii, whenever I read a Malstrom article I'd get all pepped up and Nintendoed out. I'd feel anger at 3rd parties for not supporting Wii and I believed the Wii had this grand disruption plan, a crazy video game plan that would implode the world...Until I realized this guy is Hitler, Malstrom is good at riling up fans/fanboys alike and turning them rabid.

Hail Malstrom?

seriously though, this guy was cool towards the beginning of this gen (cooincidentally when he was still very little known) - his birdmen fallacy articles in 2006/2007 are pretty good. But now that nintendo fanboys are quoting him left and right he has gotten a little* bit smug. It's like he's getting too big for his britches, anyways he does make a good point even if he's being an ass about it.

 

*I thought about using "a wii bit smug" here but I didn't think it was the right time for a corny pun like that :)
