What? Nintendo was considered kiddie the moment Sega of America decided to run their adds. Take a look at the commercials if you weren't gaming back then. During the PS1/N64 years, nothing was considered more kiddie than the N64 and Nintendo. It only got worse with the Gamecube.
Nintendo has always been a "kids" thing, even during the NES years. The only difference was that there was no other competition marketing a console for young adults at the time so it was never an issue.
Personally, I don't give a damn. I liked my NES in the 80's and I like my Wii-U now, in my mid 30's. But, yeah, they've never NOT been kiddie.
