Since the Wii came out, Nintendo has been dead to me. I'm all for providing better games, but they don't actually do that. The games on the Wii were terrible. Having a cheaper console does not mean that they spent more effort on the games, it actually means they have to spend more time getting the games to work on inferior hardware and less time actually making the games any good.
The Wii was all about the gimmicky controller which just didn't translate into decent gameplay at all. Since this generation seems to be following the same route with the new touch screen controller I can see them selling a ton of them to the 'casual' market and those people will buy a couple of games and then never touch it again. Same as the Wii. However, Nintendo did make a ton of money on the Wii, so this will sadly probably be successful financially too.
