You're missing my point. I'm not saying that everyone has to like the Nintendo offering over its competition in any given genre, I'm saying that the stance of a true objective gamer not to like Nintendo games across the board is a fallacy. Unless of course he/she is not a fan of the genres themselves.

And it makes sense for Nintendo games to sell better than 3rd parties as the former largely review far better than the latter. (I'm obviously referring to games available on Nintendo systems here) 

Also it's a false equivalence to say that a Nintendo fan's positive prejudice amounts to the same as an anti-nintendo fan's negative prejudice.

A Nintendo fan becomes devoted to the company and its games because they've enjoyed a seminal selection of games over years or even decades. It has been earned. 

The anti-nintendo fan generally doesn't play any or many of the companies games, but rather draws on a pre-existing bias. 

Again, I'm not saying everyone has to like every Nintendo game, but I just don't find it credible that an honest fan of many genres of game can't find a good deal to enjoy within Nintendo's catalogue.

And this goes for any developer. Just because I don't own an Xbox or PlayStation doesn't mean that I doubt there'd be titles on them that I'd enjoy! 

Sorry man, it goes two ways...

Nintendo fans (you can look in this site) are very positive on their anti-3rd parties hate, and calling it deserved... but when it is on people that aren't interested in Nintendo games it must be a hater that hates only for the sake of it because no one couldn't be interested in at least one game from Nintendo.

It is the same coin, on one side you aren't accepting that ALL 3rd parties TOGETHER can't be better and sell better than any game Nintendo have in the genre. Just look at your argument it is basically the same put inverting Nintendo with 3rd parties.

Not sure where the "Manufacture 30m/ship 25m" comes from but the whole thing stems from a rumour. Even then, it was stated as between 25m and 30m. So, in that eventuality there wouldn't be a specific number produced and the unsold left in inventory. The exact figure manufactured would be flexible dependant on demand. Least that's how i would read it. However, that's still just a rumour. Going by Kimishima's comments though about wanting to sell 20m+, i would guess upwards of 20m will be produced this year.

Nope man, on the thread about the produce 30M ships 25M or produces 25M ships 20M, that was how  the rumor was, that Nintendo would produce 5M more than they intended to ship, which of course is bizarre.

Pretty sure that was someone just misunderstanding the original rumour and putting their own "spin" on it.
