I haven't had or wanted a Nintendo console since the SNES. I know they still have some hardcore fans, but I felt like the more I grew up, the less Nintendo products were for me. I think they missed a huge opportunity to be taken seriously again when they made the Wii U instead of a good modern gaming console that caters to people who don't really know what a pokemon is. They've been banking on nostalgia for way too long.
