Didn't you just make up a line about almost 100% (under 50%) of "successful games" are Nintendo, along with some drivel that the Wii U is a successful console despite being outsold by everything else to laughable degrees with main reason being a terrible library

because you personally hate Nintendo and the people who enjoy their games.

Nah, I just think too many people are far too biased when it comes to them because they're the emotional reactionaries. Nintendo's recent history has had a **** ton of mediocrity, and Nintendo's safety net is the exact opposite of innovation, it's reselling or rehashing old successes. You already stupidly praised them for "innovation" without explaining what that meant. That same innovation that launched the worst selling console of last generation, with oh-so-innovative controller. Or is a new Mario side scroller every year what you meant by innovation?
And BoTW is a solid 8/10.

I do not personally hate Sony, I just disagree with what they do. I think they are dangerous and self-destructive to the video game industry. Can you imagine having this position? Something that isn't entirely condemning the people you disagree with for your own sense of righteousness? I just don't hate them, I'm not stupid enough to fall into this emotional trap with them.

How dare they produce successful video games and consoles to a changing market. That's the real innovation, the kind that makes money. And I dunno, you sound like the one with a really warped sense of righteousness. I'm just calling you out on blatant lies and general overhyping of an above average product. I don't hate either company, nor do I like them. They're companies. They just exist. But you certainly are stupid enough to fall into an emotional trap.

Just because it's not as good as Nintendo systems

Aren't they objectively better machines that routinely ship more games, with the Wii being a fluke because of its party games, which was also the first and last time "innovation" worked out?

My main issue with PS4 is that the square button is too close to the pause button/touch pad.

Can't handle when people give you a hard time for your preference of video game? Suck it up, Nintendo fans have been dealing with this for their entire lives. It's not going to stop, it's going to get worse, and eventually Sony will even release a platform that bombs even worse than PS3 and Vita. There are going to be ups and downs, and there are going to be people who are going to make fun of you for preference. It's petty and tribalistic, yeah, but Nintendo fans have had the worst end of this stick for almost 20-30 years. Now Sony fans are butthurt that the tables are turning a bit, and it's beyond hilarious to watch them unable to receive what they have dished out.

Man I haven't even owned a Sony console since the PSP so I don't really know where you're pulling this Sonyfan **** from, but Nintendo fans have been dealing with this because they're mostly obsessive weirdos who think their detached, mediocre company that pumps a lot of garbage and a few gems is any different than the other detached, mediocre companies that pump out a lot garbage and few gems. At least irrational Sonyfans have the courtesy to stay out of sight and write Kingdom Hearts fanfic.

If you go around saying "Zelda isn't that amazing of a game!", what is going to happen is that every time a reasonably mannered human being (someone who probably owns a Wii U and a copy of the game) hears you say it you will lose a ton of credibility points. It's a really really really good game.

It is a pretty good game but it is by no stretch of the imagination the game that it is being celebrated as. It's gameplay is nice and smooth but it's also very simple to an almost insulting degree because it never threatens the player with any complexity, and while the story is leagues deeper than the typical Zelda game it's still a very shallow and one dimensional one beyond the opening. It's a good Zelda game. It's a good game in general. But it is not perfect, and it's not close to perfect. It's certainly one of the best open world games that I've stopped giving a **** about to be released this decade, but it's not the best by any means. It's shallow. Shallow in mechanics, shallow in story, and shallow in scope. Which is fine, plenty of great games are shallow. I couldn't begin to tell you what Gauntlet is about, but I still love that piece of ****. But if a game is going to be praised as jesus in a box it better off something more than "the usual but a bit better". So yeah, if one of the six people in the world who own a Wii U wanna come at me, be my guest.
And Nier is waaaaaay better.
