Why are people complaining so much about Nintendo here?

It's not like the VGX had any world premieres or annoucements that were any special. Most of those "World Premieres" were nothing more than a new look or new trailer for already announced games.

Seriously, the VGX were very lame this year. Even moreso than the years before.

And people are jumping at Nintendo for doing the same as any other devs that were present for that show... Really guys.

That hint at a Metroid game, how the Retro Studio responded when asked how many teams the studio had...
Make of that what you will.

People are just haters.   Its what happens when you sell the most consoles with "lesser" hardware.  The DS and 3DS have destroyed Playstations handhelds, while the Wii beat the 360 and PS3 by a decent margin, even though it was pretty much just a gamecube with motion controls.  Every trend I see points to the Wii U beating the Xbone for sure this gen, and giving the PS4 a a run for its money, but people just want to hate.   DKCR sold 6 million while Infamous 2 sold 1.4 million, yet people think that Infamous will be a system seller.   The only true system seller that Sony and Microsoft have is Call of Duty, and if you look at overall COD sales, they are way down and people are losing interest.  The hardcore COD fans always go crazy for it at launch, so its not a suprise that the PS4/X1 have sold well so far.  Once that crowd already has them these systems are going to fall on their face.  TLOU was an awesome game, released on a console with 75 million units and only sold 3.5 million.  Thats about how many people actually care about griity/mature games out there.
