Besides, the point isn't whether the game was hard or not and how many people could beat the game, the point is, that how can the new audience be "hardcore". Considering how much NES expanded the audience, gamers back then people would have needed to be born as "hardcore". |
Actually that all still goes back to how children could not beat many games back in the NES days. So yes, games were more difficult and Mega Man 2 being one of the easiest NES games(as you said) just proves that point. Today's easy games are Avatar games, or insert other children's franchise and slap a project together. These games are cakewalks. Most of our mainstream titles, Mario Galaxy, Assassin's Creed, Resident Evil 4, etc. are also easier than one of the easiest NES games. Games were just more difficult as a collective whole back then. Malstrom just has this need to apply Blue Ocean and his other typical talking points into every argument he concocts, no matter how much it does not apply. This is by far one of his sloppiest offerings.
