Oh no journalist are being so biased because they report the negative news about Nintendo's console branch which is struggling.
Woah is me, whatever is there to do? Maybe only positive things should be said and the negative news should be hidden in the closet.
Fact: Negative news will ALWAYS overshadow the positive in this case its the Wii U( atm Negative) vs. 3DS(Very Positive).
Journalists just report what makes a better story, that's how it goes.

Truth is journalists always targets bad news. Just like how the gaming press rejected the PS3 and the xbone initially so what exactly is up with them.

Exactly, that's how it goes. They want a juicy story, I mean what makes a better title "Nintendo 3DS pounds out another millionth sale" or "Nintendo's struggling Wii U continues to struggle". The job is to make money whether its a website, newspaper or video, they make money off ads>>>Need people to view ads>>>>need people to click on page to view ads.

They're not biased against Nintendo's games.... they just want to play them on iphones, android, ps4, xbox, etc.
