Hey! It's Petz 6!
Not cool isn't exactly it, especially now, it's "not attention grabbing". Nintendo is seen as just fine to most people these days, but no one cares is all. Nintendo just isn't grabbing people by their shirt collar and yelling at them in a loud voice that occasionally cracks into high pitched mode, where you know Nintendo internally is kinda embarressed, but is totally hiding it by yelling even louder, and you snicker because you know Nintendo is going to probably do that again pretty soon. Also, at the end Nintendo beats you with some blunt object. You know, some crate labelled "12 of them" on it, so you know whatever is in there, there's 12 of them. That's what the people want, what they NEED. It's what MS and Sony gives them every single night.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
