I mean there's that, but there's also a number of posts and comments about how Nintendo is shit for doing something that they didn't even do. Like, there's more than enough things to give them shit for, why invent new ones?

You are being willfully ignorant if you think Sony has got the same negativity Nintendo has been getting recently. I have seen comments calling Nintendo a cancer on the gaming industry, calling for them to go bankrupt, etc. You can't pretend Nintendo doesn't get an undue amount of heat when they misstep. My headcanon is that the discrepancy is mostly due to 13 year olds in their edgy phase but it's still real.
