I don't get people whining about wanting the old Nintendo back. Today's Nintendo is the old Nintendo.

 

Honestly, the world of gaming would be a much better place if the whiners just sold their Wii's (for real this time), stuck to their favourite console and let the rest enjoy their games, hardcore or not.

Then how do you explain this huge difference between the Wii and the Gamecube?

It's a difference I can't see with the PS and the PS2 and the PS3 or the Xbox with the Xbox 360.

It's simple. The Nintendo of last gen was not the old Nintendo. It was a Nintendo that tried to be something it never was, or something like that. With the Wii Nintendo went back to it's roots.

I would also like to add that there wasn't much change between Xbox and Xbox 360, or PSX and PS2. Between PS2 and PS3 I would say there's some notable difference though; with PS3 Sony lost a big chunk of it's casual crowd.
