Yes we know that Nintendo loves higher margins than other companies, but for some reason they are liked for having high margins and others are hated.

Well Nintendo is only gaming company compared to Sony and MS that have other divisons that could help them, and they always are going for high profit because gaming is everything they are doing, I mean Wii U and 3DS are all Nintendo consoles that were not selling with profit right from launch.

I have nothing against Nintendo doing good and making profit. My only issue is people criticizing AAA putting 100M on a game to sell 10M and make good profit versus Nintendo puting 10M and selling 15M at the same pricetag, asking the others to better manage their budget.

To me a 30% margin is more than decent, if a company is making much more than that, then they should be investing that in making even better things for me, or charge less.
