If Nintendo doesn't take their home console seriously, why should anyone else?

I hope you are aware of the delightful irony of your post, but I am not holding my breath.

I just want to ask right fast, but where is the irony?  I don't really see it.  If DietSoap was a console manufacturer who didn't take his console seriously, that would be ironic, certainly, but I don't get it otherwise.  I admit to being somewhat puzzled.

Certainly:

No profile pic, profile says 83 year old gamer, no games, no friends, 200 some posts since 2010, drive by one sentence flaimbait post. Making a dubious claim without any effort what so ever of documenting it or making it reasonable.

All this points to someone not taking their account very seriously.

So, I figured it was an attempt at some great meta-humor. (As in, don't take me seriously since I'm not serious, then apply that to the initial inflamatory post). I thought it was funny anyway.

Ofcourse, there is the less funny possibility that the post was meant seriously, and that a company that has dedicated years of research, millions of dollars in development cost, game development and advertizing, and countless manhours in support of the Wii U isn't really serious about it. In which case the post is just outright stupid, but I tend to think the best of people. I think he was just being funny.
