Day 12 - Ports, remasters and hypocrisy

There's this one thing that have been bothering me lately in the gaming community. I myself, while having Nintendo as favorite, also own and am a big fan of PS3 and PSVita and have a big library of PC games. There's this one thing that constantly bothers me as fan of both Ninty and Sony: the hypocrisy.

When Wii U had a big day one patch, people were saying how "Nintendo released an unfinished product". Meanwhile when the other two also had big day one updates, people were saying that "It's normal as the console was produced long before the release date".

And now, both Xbox One and Playstation 4 is flooded with ports, HD remasters (aka slightly better textures and rendered in 1080p) or games that can be played on last-gen consoles. I'm personally not okay with that, this doesn't make me wanna buy PS4 at all. But that's not the point here. The point is... We're over one year after the release and trully new games are few and barely any of them seem next-gen. When Wii U released, people were saying that: "It's same graphics as last-gen, no new games, only ports and that Wii U has no games". These kind of comments were common then and are still quite common now. Meanwhile, Playstation 4 and Xbox do the same thing: The Last of Us: Remastered (a remaster of a ONE YEAR OLD GAME),  Halo Master Chief Collection, FFX Remaster till PS4, FF7 port from PC, all the games that can also be played on last-gen without any major differences and so on. And guess what? Close to everyone is perfectly okay with that, contantly throwing dirt against Nintendo and Wii U while praising Sony and Microsoft.

And it's the same every time: Wind Waker HD? "Nintendo fanboys getting hyped over a remake are pathetic"
The Last of Us Remastered: "OMG Thank you Sony, can't wait to buy again"

I can understand being a fan of something, but stop pointing out flaws in others if the thing you like does the same. To be honest, all those arguments about which console is better are dumb. Why making those dumb console wars? The creators of them aren't fighting with each other, they actually respect each others work.

It annoys me because I'm gettin tired of people constantly telling Nintendo fans that they are blind fanboys who only play "same things over and over again" while the others do the exact same thing. All biggest names in the industry are long running series.
