a - There's no need to challenge me, I don't make up facts lol http://gamrfeed.vgchartz.com/story/3354/credit-suisse-analyst-manufacturing-cost-of-wii-45-lower-than-launch/ Oh wait it costed 12$ more than what I said =S
b - It was reduced on September. And I... well actually my brother and I, bought one for 250€ and only had Wii Sports.
c - Hm... what's valid to me might not be to you. I personally think the new Zelda game looks... weird, it's not TOO cartoonish, but it sort of reminds me of Rayman 2 with better graphics. Not really into the art style. But then again, that's my opinion and I don't expect everyone to agree with me. I guess the feeling I've got is more general: people are cheering everything the Nintendo's doing, and few people actually criticize 'em. The SMG example is pretty good. SMG2 might be a great game, but the way people talk about it...
About that video, LOL! That's why I said GAMERScritic-proof, looks like most of the industry is either biased or doesn't like Nintendo. But still, I can see that 360 fanboy point, even if he's one of the most biased reviewers I've ever seen, the games shown on his conference... I mean the MS conference, are more interesting to him than the ones shown on the Nintendo conference. Of course that Gears of War 3 and CoD weren't announced on the MS conference, so he fails when he sayd that MS had the best conference.

a - An analyst you say, not really something I would call proof, that could be it's real manufacturing cost for all I know. However, only Nintendo knows how much it profits from a Wii sold.
b - It became available in October, you ought to have waited a bit.
c - I would call that a matter of opinion. And here is thread that discusses the art style of Skyward Sword, there are other people who have a problem whit it. Though I have to ask do you think not enough people are criticizing Nintendo?
Maybe Nintendo is getting cheered a lot because they are making games that people are interested in, if you don't like them that's fine enjoy what games you want, but don't go along stating they are never criticized.
Lefties and the 3DS - opens a valid worry that those how are left handed will not be able to use the 3DS' analog stick/dish/whatever it is.
Shame on Nintendo and Shame on the 3DS!! - here is one that "discusses" the not so different look between the 3DS and the DS models, plus look a little further in the thread for some not so nice views about the 3DS.
And if I look far back I can find more, Wii Music hate, the notion that Wii Fit would destroy gaming, the complaints that Nintendo reuses their IPs a lot, when other companies do it just as much or more, Wind Waker being bashed for its art style, later to be admired when Twilight Princess as released.
I wont comment on the Super Mario Galaxy and Ratchet and Clank thing, because I have not played either of those games.
