Though not perfect, positive Wii buzz didn’t get to where it is today because a small nerd minority was anxiously rooting for the home console underdog (read: Nintendo). Cinderella stories wouldn’t work if “she” were ugly. In short and as most of you already appreciate, Nintendo did a lot of things right during 2006.
