No offense, but you seem to live in some kind of parallel universe where every gamer shares your preferences.

Your unrealistically optimistic view of all things Nintendo turns almost every post you make into an exercise in wishful thinking.

I admire your positivity, I really do, but if you honestly think that NX and Zelda U are hugely hyped things that the whole industry is eagerly looking forward towards, you're living in a dream world.

No offense, but you seem to live in some kind of parallel universe where you think that all people share same preferences.

You are totally negative about everything, you wrote itself that you are very negative so you hardly can be objective.

Of Course that whole industry isn't hugle hyped about Zelda U or U4 for instance, but you can bet that gaming industry is very hyped about NX and you really need to be blind not to see that.

"Your unrealistically optimistic view of all things Nintendo turns almost every post you make into an exercise in wishful thinking."

What things exalty!? Because I expecting sales of Zelda on NX 4-7m, or because I expecting that NX console will be better success than WiiU!? Both things are pretty objective not unrealistically optimistic views. Saying that ZeldaU will sell 10m+ on NX and that NX platform will be sold same like Wii/DS would be unrealistically optimistic views not things that I wrote.

You really don't what about are you talking, just give me one thing that I wrote and that is unrealistically optimistic view.

I am a pessimist, but given the sorry state of the industry at the moment, even I'm often unrealistically optimistic. For instance, not even I dared to imagine this year's E3 would be this awful. Sadly, pessimism is reality when it comes to Nintendo these days.

You should have known me a couple of years ago; I defended Nintendo day in and day out, telling people "just wait til E3, they'll announce new stuff and blow us away" and the like.

These days, I am resigned to the harsh reality of today's industry, and the fact that my tastes are growing increasingly niche as the inexorable march of the Dudebro pushes everything that's not a realistic M-rated action game into obscurity. I may not like it, but that's the way things are.
