You're stalling. The OP says it all; since they joined the console biz, has there ever been a worse time to be a Nintendo fan than now, and if so, when?

I still see no non-loaded version. Like I said, I'll answer the question when you ask it in a way that doesn't assume a false concept.

The one thing I'll say right now is that things are better now than they have been at times. I'll say more when you show an ability to ask the question without loading it.

The problem is that no one is failing to acknowledge 3DS, but rather, that it doesn't matter if you acknowledge or not. No home console owner should have to endure the narrative of "just play on your 3DS", because they didn't buy a WiiU to play 3DS games. Similary with the Vita case. You just don't go and say a Vita player to "get a PS4 for first-party games" because they want to play first-party games on the Vita and don't really care if PS4 gets more games than it.

People saying "3DS guys! Games on 3DS! Play on 3DS! Everything is wrong because we're not taking 3DS into account!" arguments doesn't help because they indirectly suggest that, indeed, WiiU has such lack of support that you'd need to add the 3DS into equation to make things brighter. Which shouldn't be the case in the first place, hence why it's a really bad time to be a [home-console] Nintendo fan.

I know the OP worded poorly, but he's talking mainly about Nintendo's home console these past four years.

The question doesn't ask if there's been a worse time for those who only own Nintendo's home console, it asks if there has been a worse time to be a Nintendo fan. Nintendo fans generally own both console and handheld.

That means there's only about 14 million Nintendo fans.
