I love it when it's completely irrational, because then it's easy to laugh at it. But most of the time it's just annoying, because the person who criticizes Nintendo is building his/her argument on the fake basis that he/she is a Nintendo fan or an openminded gamer.

What's sad is when you build up a fake image of yourself in order to be vocal about things that don't really interest you in the first place. This generation is full of fake Nintendo fans who want to advise Nintendo on what is best for them and their fans. There are more of these fake people than ever before and why is that?

Because Nintendo is successful.

This is what I love about VGChartz. I've done it many times. A gamer comes on this forum and says they are a Nintendo fan fed up with Nintendo. They talk about how they loved Nintendo and lost faith. I do a quick profile check to see what Nintendo consoles and games they play. The majority of the time I notice that the gamer doesn't own anything Nintendo. I can then approach them in the thread and call them out (Which I have done) or just write them off as yet another MS or Sony fanboy.

um Nintendo has been hated way before the wii and DS was released.. even in the gamecube era it was the same, 

Nintendo has been hated on since it made the NES since all the core and adult gamers were on their Apple 2 or the like playing their point and click adventure games... only kids played on consoles was the theme back then... boy how times haven't changed one bit 

Yah, Amiga and Commodor were where its at. Adults used computers and kids used consoles. Though I think Nintendo really got hated during the N64 time period. Because of high cartridge costs and lack of mature games. Fanboys ripped on Nintendo for everything they did, Nintendo could never do anything right. I remember when a prominant 1UP employee called the GameCube a childrens toy, man I was pissed.
