Because Nintendo fans deny any non-Nintendo games. And in the scale of Nintendo games it is quite... influential.
This is a little bit douchey with the wording but not entirely incorrect. Nintendo fans play Nintendo games, and that's usually it. As much as they've gotten better at third party support, it's cheaper to just buy a separate console or PC, which has games go on sale and have it run better. Rather than buying Witcher 3 running sub 30 FPS at full price years after release because Nintendo tax. But if you do that you're not a "Nintendo guy". You're just really onto video games, so BoTW won't surprise you.
Similar to how Apple repackages features. If you use Apple products you're usually either a tech guy or an Apple guy. The tech guys have a healthy respect for Apple but don't appreciate the repackaging and business practices. The Apple guys are impressed, because Apple facilitates being locked into their ecosystem, and therefore they've never seen it.
