Nintendo does not cater to males 18-34 (almost) exclusively like the other companies do.
Nintendo does bend over backwards to get positive feedback from gaming journalists.
Since most gaming journalists are males 18-34 and have not been feted by Nintendo, they seem to think it is a terrible company. The 180 they are doing on motion gaming (especially since the kickball demonstration reminded me of a PS2 EyeToy) demonstrates this.
But even what everyone complained about last year's E3 by Nintendo, the games all sold and sold well (only Nintendo can have failures like Wii Music at 2.5M and Animal Crossing at 3.0M). Basically, Nintendo just smiles and heads to the bank to deposit its profits while the competition goes to the same bank to borrow money to cover their losses.
