Spite Hype is when a piece of media is hyped up not because of it's quality, but out of spite for another piece of media.
Fans of media that is spite hyped typically are jaded fans of another piece of media, or just outgrew that piece of media and can't accept it. They often act elitist or snobbish to fans that still enjoy the piece of media they are jaded of.

Sonic Racing: Crossworlds, Palworld, and Digimon Time Stranger are examples of games that grew in popularity because of spite hype.

Get the Spite Hype mug.A YouTuber that dedicates their channel mostly hating on Nintendo or Nintendo fans for the sake of money or clout, rather than actual concern for the direction the company is going. They will post daily nonstop videos bashing Nintendo because the algorithm benefits from negativity and upload frequency. They either made their channels specifically to hate on Nintendo, or shifted their channel focus to hating Nintendo when it became the popular thing to do. Calling them out for grifting will lead to you being labeled a shill or a bootlicker, regardless of if you agree or disagree with Nintendo's decisions.
Note: Criticising Nintendo's anti-consumer actions doesn't automatically make you a grifter. Problems arise when your criticism turns into a content farm for the algorithm.
How to tell if someone is a Nintendo Hate Grifter:
-Near-Daily Uploads Hating on Nintendo or its fans
-Use of AI in thumbnails
-Misinformation that can be debunked by a Google search ("You don't own the console", "$90 Games")
-They began hating Nintendo after the whole $450 Switch 2 situation
-Their content style is similar to other Nintendo Hate Grifters

"Nintendo Hate Grifters have made it hard to tell if a video criticising Nintendo was made out of genuine concern or just because it's trendy."

Get the Nintendo Hate Grifter mug.Gamers that care way too much about the attractiveness of female characters in video games (or fiction as a whole). Whenever an "ugly" (aka slightly realistically portrayed) female character is shown, they will throw a shitfit about how "woke DEI feminism is making women ugly" and how "western gaming is dying". Goonmers fuel the stereotype of gamers being basement dwelling losers who haven't felt the touch of a women, which is funnily enough an accurate description of them.

Get the Chudslop mug.Nintendo Derangement Syndrome (NDS) is a term to describe a condition where individuals lose all sense of objectivity and rationality when discussing Nintendo specifically those who obsessively hate the company. This often leads to exaggeration, misinformation, double standards, and bizarre emotional reactions whenever Nintendo is even mentioned. It's much more prevalent ever since the Switch 2 Launch.
You're allowed to dislike & criticize Nintendo. NDS kicks in when that dislike tums into obsession. misinformation, or irrational rage especially when you start acting like people enjoying a game is a personal attack on you.
Symptoms of Nintendo Derangement Syndrome:
• Compulsive Lying about Nintendo sales, hardware specs, or game quality
• Goalpost Shifting when proven wrong
• Downplaying Critical or Commercial Success
• Calling Fans Cultists while foaming at the mouth about a 40-second Nintendo Direct trailer
• Using Piracy or Emulation as a Moral Crusade

People who claim that the 5th generation of Pokémon was peak and the series went downhill after B2W2. Similarly to Genwunners, Genfivers typically grew up during Gen 5 and hold a lot of nostalgia for it. Despite condemning Genwunners for their treatment of Gen 3 onwards, they pretty much act the same to Gen 6 onwards. If you say anything negative about Gen 5, they will either call you a Genwunner, or a little kid, depending on what games you prefer.
Note: Just liking Gen 5 doesn't make you a Genfiver. It's only when you are elitist about Gen 5 that makes you a Genfiver

Here is an actual interaction between a Gen 7 fan, and a Genfiver. For context: the Gen 7 fan was defending Pokémon Sun and Moon:
Genfiver: "Gen 7 was fine major setback but whatever"
Gen 7 fan: "nuh uh"
Genfiver: "I mean ur probably just a little kid who didnt grow up with the true Pokemon games on the DS."
Genfiver used in a sentence:
"I used to like Gen 5, but Genfivers ruined it for me."

Get the Genfiver mug.A phenomina in the Pokémon Community. About 8-10 years after a generation of Pokémon releases, the people who grew up with the generations start glazing the games to death. Sometimes generations are skipped in the cycle (like Gen 2 and Gen 6) and usually join another generation's fans (like Gen 2 fans joining Gen 4 fans due to HGSS).
The cycle started off with Genwunners in the early 2000s-early 2010s, then Gen 3 fans in 2013 with "Hoenn Confirmed!", then Gen 4 fans/Sinnohfetuses in 2017, and then Genfivers in 2021. It will likely shift to Gen 7 fans in a year or two since Pokémon Sun and Moon turns 10 next year.
