I have played all games from a zx80 through to this gen including PC but if there's one thing I have learnt Nintendo have the best games. Once the graphics have hit their limits then we will see which companies are good and not, I look forward to that day very much

Your opinion about the "best games" is perfectly fine with me.

I take it that you don't like RTSs, Hack and Slash games, simulators, shooters, RPGs, MMO games. Nor any game with a dark, disturbing or mature setting.

Because a lot of people do, even discounting graphics improvements, and Nintendo isn't going to cater their needs - unless they completely subvert a 25-years-old history.

Nintendo doesn't have to make the best games in every possible genre to make the "best games," or be the best software developer/publisher, or anything like that.  Nor does a person have to dislike dark brooding space marine games to think that Super Mario Galaxy is an all-time classic; it is not either/or.  It is possible for a given person to enjoy a wide variety of genres, and still believe that Nintendo has had a special quality over the last few decades which has lead them to create some of the most beloved video games, all time, as is demonstrated by numerous "best-of" lists both on and off this very site.

Just as you say "your opinion about the 'best games' is perfectly fine with me," it's also perfectly fine if you don't think Nintendo has the best games.  But to assume that someone who does think that must not like RPGs, RTSs, etc., is arrogant and lame.  And wrong.
