No, it is completely unreasonable to claim Nintendo stabbed fans in the back with Wii. If someone didn't like the console or games, that's fine, it still doesn't mean Nintendo betrayed anybody.

Nintendo published titles like Mario Galaxy 1+2, Metroid Prime 3, Twilight Princess, Xenoblade Chronicles, Donkey Kong Country Returns, among others. It's impossible to claim such titles aren't high-quality regardless if one likes them or not.

I think for him it was Ninty going the whole family route that might have him believe that they left core gamers out in the cold. I dont really agree and I can only speculate but, its kind of weird to say its unreasonable to think so. Maybe it is. Lets hear why he thinks so.

I didn't like the Wii at all but I don't think they intentionally went after the casuals. I think they tried to make a console that would appeal to the mass market while still releasing games for their core fan base and they did just that. Sadly, some of the more dedicated gamers didn't really like the whole wii mote thing and it quickly turned them off and then the casuals moved on to other things leaving Nintendo in it's current state where only the die hard Nintendo fans are left to support their home consoles.
