How did you get that Kotaku is biased against the Wii?

Lately, Kotaku is the anthesis of Anti-Wii passive-agression.

 

1. Consistantly pro Jaffe.

2. Very negative and critical about Brawl supply issues.

3. Called Nintendo numbers fakes, vs EA's predictions, but failed to explain where those 2 million consoles went.

4. Very critical of Nintendo patents for new controller ideas, "

Nintendo's Wii Peripheral Patents Are Hilariously Bad"

5. Very critical of Wii Fit early on, and sales of all casual Nintendo games.

6. Heavily criticized SSB:B for online not working immediately and suggested Nintendo "ease into the whole online thing," while in another article, talking about how great the game would have been if it had a "proper online mode" like PSN or XBL, this is from playing on release day, btw.

7. Recently said this, " Rolleyes.gif. Ed, we're not talking about genres, we're talking about quality. Endless minigame compilations on the Wii would be fine by me, so long as they were good. As it stands, they're not, and once the shine of the console and Wii Sports wears off, it's good games that Wii owners are going to need to keep them from throwing it in the back of the closet."

8. Claims to be unentheusiastically unsuprised to find out Miyamoto is planning to work on a new Mario and Zelda game.

9. Online community is heavily Anti-Wii

 

These are over the last couple of day of posting.

 

I'll admit, this entire article is just my opinion. I really can't prove any of it. Call me a consiracy theorist, but I just get a bad feeling every time I read a kotaku article that there is going to be a little negative jib about the Wii in there, at the end, to add to the pile.

 

Definately not an unopinionated or understanding site when it comes to any mistakes by big publishers in the gaming industry, I guess it could just be that there are more stories about Nintendo and the Wii than any other console, or company.
