Well, so long as we're all getting things off our chests...

Some of the Nintendo fans on this forum have become the most condescending jerks with laughable double standards. Now, remember. I said some, not all. The majority are not like this. But some posters find it necessary to bash journalists and reviewers instead of actually blaming their beloved Nintendo for ANYTHING. They act like anyone who likes another console and/or tries to defend is not worth their time except for an offhanded insult or two. I've seen people predict ridiculous things (60 million Wiis by the end of 2008, 10 million lifetime for Wii Music) who don't even get a raised eyebrow when the predictions fall flat on their faces.

This has more to do with Nintendo fans than the Wii itself, but I felt like this was a good enough thread. I hate all of the fanboys, really. But because of Nintendo's success, Nintendo fanboys are often the most FULL OF THEMSELVES. And remember, I'm not saying all.

 

That's all fanboys, and you certainly already know it. When's the last time you saw an anti PS3 article go over well on this forum?

I do know it, although you should specify if you mean all the points or certain points. I even said at the bottom "I HATE ALL OF THE FANBOYS!!!" When's the last time you've seen a negative article about anything go over well on these forums? They're negative articles, what would you expect?

Yea I think Montana makes a good point. He seems to agree with me that the problem with fanboys is the lack of respect for others and other companies. Self-interest, like I've been saying is the problem. That problem is caused by the lack of justice. People need to have a concern for that like we do.

Thanks for understanding. I thought my rant would anger a lot of people, but this post gives me hope. I just want some peace and respect for other members on the forums. That's my job, after all.

My only problem with your post, Montana, is that you seem to think Nintendo fanboys are somehow worse than Sony fanboys, which I think it ludcrious.

I guess it's all perspective.

 



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Okay, tell me where in my post I said that. That would be quite the challenge, ehh?

Montana it just seems like it, not you actually wrote it down, and we could bold it.

No. I said that of the worst, most annoying fanboys, Nintendo fanboys are often the most condescending because of Nintendo's success. It was the same way with Sony fanboys the last 2 generations. I never said they were the worst ANYWHERE.

"But because of Nintendo's success, Nintendo fanboys are often the most FULL OF THEMSELVES."

Methinks this sentence is the primary source of the confusion, although having the entire post be about Nintendo fans (while understandable and natural) only contributed.

It seems there's some apathy towards the OP. Or at least this thread is totally derailed.

Well, I could make 2 posts lambasting PS3 and 360 fans, but I have to go somewhere in half an hour and I'm busy watching stuff on Youtube. Just know that I hate all of them. Grr.
