I think Gamerace summed it up quite nicely. There are three different kinds of people attacking the Wii; those who have issues with the business model of Nintendo (which is silly), those who are bitter because Nintendo aren't the same any more and have less to offer than before for them (I fall into this category) and there are those who are simply pissed because its selling a lot more than their console of choice.
Personally, I don't like the direction they are taking but I recognize the genius in the business model even still. The problem arises when there is no middle ground on forums and in articles, usually there are pure haters and pure lovers going at each others' throats, one thinking that Nintendo is a filthy pile of doodoo and the other thinking they are near divine and utterly infallible. We need more intelligent coverage with observations rather than silly articles, posts and remarks based purely upon hatred or doting.
All this brings me to why I still like this site better than any other gaming related forum; despite the complaints about morons speaking nonsense every now and then, this place has by the most intelligent posts and posters of any of the forums I've tried and this remains the only one I go to every day, several times a day.
