Ladies and gents I feel we have finally come full circle (Nintendo hate)

Now watch as this thread will be filled with Nintendo fans agreeing with you, instantly going into defence mode over a console they know barely anything about and continue to support a company that barely releases any games for their current system and has actually allowed Tiger Woods PGA Tour and a Street Fighter port to be the best releases of the year for their systems. I'd recommend approaching the Wii-U with caution, because I think Nintendo have been a bit lost as of recently and you guys are going to be the ones to suffer in the end.

You have some legitimate points, but what do you mean by the bolded? The big releases for the year are Skyward Sword and Mario Kart 3DS, not what you mentioned...

I don't see it as the hate coming full-circle (though it kind of is, if we're stretching back around to why people hated the GameCube), more as people jumping to immediate conclusions about indefinite things. "Where are the games, where are the specs, what'll the online be like!!" which is something people tend to do with Nintendo a lot, take the gaps in their information and fill them with all kinds of (usually negative) conjecture.

Now the whole problem of gaps of information might reflect poorly on Nintendo, as they never really give out all the information (i still declare that we will never see officially confirmed Wii U specs), but as we've seen from misleading thread title after misleading thread title even in the past five days, people are willing to take casual comments, make them definite, and then use those as declarations against Nintendo. If they're so happy with their "dozens of great games," why belittle the company that, according to your own admission, isn't offering you anything you don't already have?

Skyward Sword and Mario Kart 3DS haven't released yet, when they release then they might be the best, but until then some golf game and a Street Fighter port are going to be the best games on their systems. We don't know if Skyward Sword or Mario Kart 3DS will be good or better, we've seen similar things happen with Metroid: Other M, Epic Mickey and The Conduit, so it's probably better to wait before we name them the best games of the year.
