Hahaha.. I'm pretty convinced at this point that people in the gaming media get a boner for writing cynical shit about Nintendo.. I mean I shouldn't talk, I've written my share as well. Hell, I'm probably one of their harshest critics as of late. I think they've made some absurd business moves and have been downright stupid and stubborn in abandoning the Revolution they had going with the Wii sometime in 2009 and regressing back to the Gamecube-style niche games with Wii U..
But where I differ from most of these critics is that I DO believe Nintendo will EVENTUALLY right the ship again, just like they did in 2006 after the Gamecube with the Wii phenomenon. Hell, they've been around for over a CENTURY. Let that sink in for a moment.. Over an entire CENTURY. Despite their seemingly stupid moves in the short term, they obviously have some crazy whit, intelligence, and foresight in the longterm locked away somewhere, in order to have created some of the massive successes they have conjured, such as the NES, Gameboy, DS, and Wii.
Nintendo will always be doomed in the eyes of many, and that to me makes it that much more enjoyable when every time they shove these "doomed" predictions up these critics' asses, and reinvent the games industry with another phenomenon.. And rest assured, they WILL do so again. It may not be soon, but it will happen. They're simply in arrogant mode right now, and they'll need to get another humbling..
