My question is simple, why is Nintendo generally ignored when it comes to Japanese games?


It's strange. I think what happens psychologically is that you look at the exceptional one and dismiss it as an exception. The rules clearly don't apply to Nintendo, so there's no point in bringing up Nintendo when discussing the rules. The error is that the exceptional ones are just as much a part of the system as the more ordinary examples.

You see this kind of thing elsewhere. Analysts are starting to cut Apple out of their market analysis.The company is huge yet still growing so rapidly, and so the analysts say it's distorting the picture of the market as a whole. They then proceed to paint a bleak picture of market performance. Well of course things look bleak, you just sliced the biggest engine of growth completely out of the picture!

See my post above. He uses Zelda as an example, so he's not entirely ignoring Nintendo

A lot of people enjoyed Zelda, and it is a great game (Do remember he said Japanese games suck, which would imply that they are flat out bad games), personally I think west rather praise Call of Duty or Battlefield, games which really share similar complaints as Zelda does.

What about the highest rated game this generation, why is that ignored, wait did I say highest rated game, I meant the two highest rated game this generation.
