Tai, Nintendo quotes worldwide sales frequently. Microsoft avoids it because they want to give the impression that they have the number two console worldwide, where in reality, that's not the case at all. Shit, PS1s have been selling better in Japan since the release of the XBox.

It is sad to think that this country is fueled by an instinctive need for "fast food gaming" which is exactly what everyone but Nintendo caters to. There have been plenty of child-oriented Sony games, but nobody brands them as being a "kiddy company." So, why do people do it to Nintendo? Because it's the only thing even close to a competent argument they have. The instant that any intelligent gamer hears the phrase "Nintendo makes kids games" they (for the most part) give up any hope they have of reforming the aforementioned moron, and resume playing good video games. It's not going to change, one way or another.
