Having they said this before? Nothing new here. Nintendo games still have challenges regardless. Isn't SMG "for everyone"? Now, tell a casual to do the Trial Galaxy. Not so easy,..is it? And Zelda has some pretty confusing puzzles and long dungeons. Really, if Zelda: TP and SMG played fine...future titles won't change much either when it comes to "accessability".

SMG is not for everyone. If you've ever seen a non-gamer attempt to play the game you'd know what I mean. Non-gamers can handle games like Wii-Fit and Wii Sports because things you do in real life happen on screen. Is this what Miyamoto is trying to do with Zelda?

 

 

 Super Mario Galaxy is indeed crafted so that anyone can play it.  Look how blissfully easy the first third of the game is.  It's pure fun, but also unchallenging in a lot of respects.  But, as with most Mario games, it starts out simple to play, simple to understand, and addictively fun--but gradually ramps up the difficulty so the hardcore have some enjoyment.
