I will say the attack on Nintendo for continuing to make platformers is laughable. New Super Mario Bros. sold 27 million copies, Nintendo will continue to make platformers as A.) their is a demand and B.) they have a reputation and experience in doing so.
It's like if McDonald's decided to stop making Hamburgers because, according to modern tastes, more people are eating Subs. Now, that may be the case.... but McDonald's is known as a hamburger restaurant and their are still millions of people who want hamburgers. Why should McDonald's, in that case, stop making burgers?
A lot of people justify their dislike with many different products this way. Same thing with Xbox being a "shooter box." If there is a market, and you have the expertise, you exploit it.
