I wouldn't just say "spirit and charm" but also the overall quality of their products have been on a downward sprial, you pay more money to gain less. I mean just look at NSO for example, you pay £40 a year for exactly the same service as 10 years ago on the wii u, wii and 3DS.

probably because of the failureof the wii u. its like it left nintendo broken, so broken that they're afraid of their fun filled past.

That's why I can't get past the Wii U, it's my most modern console and I'm not interested in the new consoles. Only a few new games interest me, not worth buying an over the top expensive console for. The only videogame stuff I wanna buy this year is a N3DS XL and a Dreamcast.
