Pfft. So one media site might have an anti-Sony slant. Spend a year as a Nintendo fan, then come back and talk.

This is true. But i don't think Nintendo suffers from it in the end, because their games always get reviewed very well.

I wouldn't be suprised if the constant ranting about the WiiU console had an impact on HW sales.

Of course it did. Same thing happened with the Vita. When the consoles struggled they pounced and whatever negative spin they had at the time (justified or not) continues to stick and linger. I'm not saying Ninty and Sony didn't have any faults in their strategy but a lot of gamers are easily swayed by the gaming media.
