| The Ghost of RubangB said: I don't get all this mumbo jumbo about "pick up and play." There was a time when almost all games were pick up and play. If you put a game in an arcade that wasn't pick up and play, nobody would put a quarter in. Chess is pick up and play, and if anybody calls chess casual I'll never read another one of their posts. |
Of course games started out that way, but gaming has evolved to include alot more types/styles of gaming. While hardcore gamers (those who spend all their free time gaming) has pretty much always existed in gaming, games geared to people who want more depth, a learning curve, investment to advancement, etc has in general been niche until these last few generations.
The only problem I have with Nintendo is they just don't have enough of those games with depth, a learning curve, investment to advance, etc.
