Nope.  Made up nonsense.  After the Wii-U, everyone and their grandma thought Nintendo should go to simple nomenclature.  

Nope.  Mario Kart 8 sold 80,000,000, Odyssey sold 30,000,000, everyone thought MK made sense.  

Must be nice making up arguments and claiming victory against imaginary opponents.  Cheers mate.

*my theory is in primary school all the cool kids had Genesis and you have a weird chip on your shoulder about Nintendo as a result*

No, Soundwave is right that a lot of people on here were arguing about name/launch titles/price/specs. Things like

”Nintendo has never had a 2 for a system name.” (I personally thought Super Switch)

”Mario Kart is a game you buy when you already have the system, it’s not a system seller itself.”

”Anything over $400 is suicide.”

”Nintendo always releases weak hardware, it won’t be able to run PS5/XBSX ports.”

Yes, these were common arguments on this site. Just because he’s not willing to go through dozens of threads and hundreds of posts to prove doesn’t mean he’s wrong.

Now obviously this doesn’t mean everyone was making these arguments. A lot of people were also arguing in favor of 2/MK launch/$400+/powerful.

Well there are two main things.

1) link to evidence?

2) if one person says something stupid, the other 20 don't, it is disingenuous to claim it was a common position 

I would love to see actual evidence that MK, which outsells 3D Mario isnt a system seller.  Same with all those people who said 2 didnt make sense.

Claims require evidence.  Pretty simple.  So provide or hush.  Especially if oh so many people said these things.  If all these people said these things, then there should be evidence.
