Am I the only one who dislikes Nintendo?

"Not caring about said company/thing, but still feeling compelled to hate on it" is what we in the business refer to as textbook trolling. There is literally no other way to label it.

Case I in point: I could give two shits less about Microsoft or the Xbox Brand. But I do not waste my time hating on it, let alone starting threads about "Hey guys don't you wish Xbox would disappear from the face of the planet". Why? Because people who do that look fucking childish and foolish as hell. It's a waste of your time and everyone else's.

And by the way, while I'm sure that you're already very aware of this, considering the true nature of your thread, Nintendo is about the exact opposite of "Used to be big once but are now pretty much irrelevant to the gaming industry". And how, I wonder, did you come to that sort of conclusion? Was it the fact that Wii was, for it's time, the fastest selling home console of all time? Or was it the retarded-good success of the DS line? Or the fact that every generation, Nintendo's games are among the highest selling and highest rated? Or the fact that out of the Top 50 (or likely even Top 100) selling games of all time, a majority of them are Nintendo titles?

Just for fun, I did a quick count, and as it stands right now, exactly 30 out of the Top 50 highest selling games of all time, and 52 out of the Top 100 overall, are Nintendo games. And not-so-surprisingly? Many of those are recent games, published within the last 10-15 years. Every major franchise they have, Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Mario Kart, Kirby, Donkey Kong, Metroid, Animal Crossing, Smash Brothers, Paper Mario, the Wii ____ series, Mario Party, Nintendogs, and even many of the more minor ones, such as Punch Out, Kid Icarus, Excite racing, Wave Race, F-Zero, Fire Emblem, Famicom/Advance Wars, and Star Fox, etc., all regularly sell 1 million+ copies per game.

The point being, this thread is, obviously ridiculous, and your sentiments are largely without merit. You can very easily "not really care" about something, and actually partake in ignored it, it's highly possible, and a much better expenditure of your time. Cheers.
