Yeah... great post. But the wording and reasoning doesn't change when you apply it to someone who grew up with Sony or Sega, or someone who is now growing up with Microsoft (or even Apple). Singling out any one group and going 'this is why they're like this' as a negative aimed solely at that one group is utterly redundant in that case...

You are absolutely correct. I never meant to single out Nintendo fans as being any different than other fans. The only reason I concentrated on Nintendo is that this was the topic of the thread. In addition, while I too am mainly a Nintendo fan-boy seeing as I don't own any non-Nintendo consoles, I would certainly own them all if I had the money as that would be the best way to guarantee having an overall complete and balanced experience as a gamer.

Seeing as I currently own only Nintendo platforms, my interest is in creating an environment as conductive as possible to a large variety of gameplay experiences on a single platform, and that is basically where I am coming from when I attempt to construct a legitimate criticism of Nintendo platforms and games... I'm basically just trying to get a better understanding of what we all think is missing from Nintendo consoles. At that point such a criticism may be offered up to big N, and they might actually be inclined to listen since there would (hopefully) be a large enough following behind it to warrant a financial investment on their part...

So basically, same idea as the online petition for the Last Story, only bigger!
