I think people are confusing normal critism with "hate". I mean when VGC, Neogaf, N4G, 4Chan and youtubers have a massive amount of threads, videos or whatever about Nintendo, there has to be something going on here.

Nope, the majority of it is fair criticism or just generally reporting news. The "hate" or "vendetta" that people are referring to is no more than any other console or company receives or has received in the past, and so doesn't deserve any attention.

Did you check Neogaf yesterday? or 4Chan and N4G? most of those weren't news, they all were "arguments" as why Nintendo should go 3rd party, drop the Wii U completely, make mobile games, etc etc. 

I'm not against criticism, but this has gone far beyond just normal criticism, they are not reporting news anymore. IGN articles about Wii U have over 10,000 comments combined, most of which are about how Nintendo sucks, Iwata is so stupid, etc. Check N4G comments, when someone says something "nice" about the Wii U it gets hundreds of downvotes. Check 4Chan, most comments are about Nintendo should ditch out completely the Wii U. The list goes on.

And no, this doesn't compared to what other people have said about other companies, not even close. Not even the PS3 was close to this, but like I mentioned above that is mostly because the internet is just bigger now.

I was mostly referring to VGC. Also, 4Chan and N4G really aren't the best sources to use.
