Do you guys seriously think HD fans hate Nintendo ?
Hate is completly wrong word here. Much closer would be pity and amusement.

"d0med" the amount of times I've seen people take the piss out of the doomsayers has engraved that in my mind lol, then comes Mario

True, I think the Nintendo fans have stronger hate toward Sony than the other way around. The gaming media has stronger hate toward Nintendo, though.
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

I permanently damaged my eyes from excessive playing of Super Mario 3 so...

I guess not lol. I dont know why Nintendo was the only thing that popped up right away but it was.
The second thing I thought of was Mario though.
Mario Vs Donkey Kong on the GBA. I loved that game as a kid.

Given that all the polemics and vitriol seem to come from HD fans and, outside of isolated pockets of Nintendo reactionaries (like what exist here) nothing going the other way, the hate and efforts to diminish and undermine Nintendo's achievements is very active
Die-hard Nintendo fans have generally detached themselves from the console wars, or take a more philosophical approach towards them. Whereas someone invested in the console wars would say "Uncharted is teh suck" if a Nintendo fan lobs a critique, it's usually against cinematic games in general, or gray shooty games, or "mature" games, but rarely do we fight individual games as you see Sony and Microsoft fans do (like debates about Forza and Gran Turismo)
We're more removed from the day to day actions of console warfare, and any flamewars we get involved in are mostly defensive, at least on the whole

That distance seems to be directly proportional to the sales of Nintendo hardware ;) Because i quite well remember blue ocean/motion gaming crusades of 2008.

True, but as i said, those were philosophical.
Grand Theft Auto IV was definitely a target of the Nintendo camp, though
