You know, I used to be a die hard Nintendo fan and while they'll always be apart of my childhood, they have become increasingly less apart of my future. I'm really kind of shocked by some of the attacks from those of you who remain die hard fans. Criticism is a necessary part of life. In some cases it comes from those who hate you and in others from those who care about you. I care about Nintendo but they seem to be disturbingly comfortable with being seen as they game company that puts out sub par technology consoles that cater to casual gamers and children.

I used to wave the Nintendo banner proudly but in the coming months the PS4 and Xbox 720 will arrive and this could spell real trouble for Nintendoland. This criticism offered up I take as constructive criticism and Nintendo would be wise to pay attention to it. Microsoft and Sony have been releasing games with heavy weight attention almost every month and I get that THEY ARE NOT PERFECT but its better than a dry spell that keeps Nintendo fans waiting for months due to the lack of third party support.

The most telling sign is that the sales of the Wii U here in the U.S. has been less then stellar which has been admitted to by Nintendo themselves. It seems as if many gamers have already dismissed this new console as a gimmick that is little more powerful then the current PS3 or 360 consoles. I love Nintendo and I want them to be around FOREVER. Sega and Atari have already lost their places in the console world so I need someone from my childhood to survive. I was hoping for a system that would rival Sony and Microsoft and put them on their heels and instead I'm given the Wii U. With the same old announcements confirming you'll need to have patience because of the same old lackluster third party support. This more of the same approach is a dangerous game Nintendo plays and someday may prove fatal.

Judging by the attacks on any criticism dished Nintendo's way I take it most on these boards are very loyal to Nintendo. I appreciate that and I feel you deserve better treatment. You are the last of your kind who remains steadfast in your support for this long history of the big N. Let's hope that they pay attention to you, me and everyone else for future reference.
