@Cobretti: Actually Wii is having similar 3rd party support that DS had at this stage. Nintendo expected a little slower start for Wii, that it had, though.

@Esa-Petteri: Yushire is right. Todays blue ocean audience is tomorrows core audience. Some will get interested in games we play today, some will like the current "blue ocean" games and some will quit gaming. But the ones who stay on board, are (part of) the core audience next gen.
The "upgrade" have happened every time there's been some sort of change in the industry. If it hadn't, we would still be playing Pong, if anything at all.

 

Thats what Im trying to say thanks bdbdbd. And for the topic, most disruption products and ideas always comes slow its not that the NES suddenly dominating the gaming market in NA.
