a) Good? I never said it would be like this forever. I specifically criticize them for how they have handled the Wii UÂ this far.
b), c), and d) I don't know, I think you are laboring under the misconception that I am calling Donkey Kong or Mario 3D World rehashes, or that I think they are safe because they are franchise games. Let me establish this (again) as clearly as I can (again): I have two f*cks to give that Mario 3D World is the 89th Mario Game, or that Tropical Freeze is the 163rd Donkey Kong game. I sincerely could not care less. I'm not one of System Wars' 'NEW IP!!!1!' brigade. I care about what the game brings to the table. Tropical Freeze and 3D World bring nothing to the table that I don't already have. One is an iterative Wii game, the other is an iterative 3DS game. Again, do I deny the games will be great? No, in fact I specifically and explicitly outline as much every time I mention those games, including in the post you originally quoted.
Which is, incidentally, why I don't seem to care about Retro doing a new Metroid or EAD doing Galaxy 2. Because every Metroid Prime game brought something new to the table. Galaxy 2 brought something new to the table. You know what isn't bringing anything new to the table? The Wii U lineup from Nintendo except for W101 and X.
e) It doesn't? Not from me? When have I ever criticized Pokemon?
So, um, I don't know what it was that you were trying to say man, but looks like you called me out for nothing :?

a) In a few places, you're acting no better than the other NintenDOOMERS, so it sure felt like it.b, c and d) Not what you've been saying over E3 raging like the average comedic internet review.
It doesn't matter what a game can bring "new to the table" so long as the IP remains old or running for a while. Last I checked, Guitar Hero brought something new to the table (for that series standards) and yet, post GH II, maybe GH III (which is perhaps my favorite due to the soundtrack, but I digress), it got called a rehash. Heck, Metal Gear, a series fans proclaim DID something new each game, can be regarded as a rehash for the name alone.
(And FYI, I personally don't care if it rehashes in name either as long as it's good. I'm just pointing out that the criticisms for that very reason exists)
e) Maybe not from you, but in other places, it's regarded as such. Goes to show that the 3DS, even of selling better, isn't safe from similar comments.
a) No, I am not acting like the 'NintenDOOMERS.' That's your problem here, you don't consider intent, you don't consider context, you don't consider if the other person has valid arguments, or rational and consistent reasons, you just see that someone is criticizing Nintendo, and then decide that they must hate the company, because that is what everyone does, everyone hates Nintendo. I don't hate Nintendo. Neither do most people on here who criticize them. There are a few haters, of course, but most of us love, or at least like, the company, and we want to see it do better, not languish in mediocrity, which is all the Wii U has been so far. b), c), and d) I'm not even sure if you are arguing against me, or the world at large anymore. I never called out either Guitar Hero or Metal Gear for being rehashes. Those don't fit into my definition of 'rehash.' Similarly, I did not call Galaxy 2 or Metroid Prime 2/3 rehashes, because those don't fit my definition either. As a matter of fact, and I don't know why I am repeating this to you for the third time in as many posts in the same thread, I did not call the Wii U lineup 'rehash' either, I called it derivative and iterative, unsafe and uncreative, all of which it IS. e) Why do I care what others think? If I am not wrong, you were calling me out on my so called change in opinion/inconsistency. Where does what others think about anything come into this at all, when it is my opinions in consideration? I don't think you are arguing against me anymore. You tried calling me out on my purported change in opinions, I went ahead and established that there was none, and you went ahead and... began arguing larger issues regarding the perception of Nintendo and their games? How does any of that apply to what I said, or what you called me out on earlier? Please keep your arguments confined to what it was you were arguing about in the first place. In this case, you said I had 'changed my opinion' again. Now do you admit you were wrong about that?
