Easy money! Quick guys, everyone start making casual games!” Nintendo: “We are following the strategy of disruption!” Journalist: (philosophically) “Will casual games cause the downfall of the hardcore games? Let me write many editorials about this!” Analyst: (philosophically) “Is the casual game boom a fad? Let us pontificate over this.” Third Parties: “Hey guys! How you like my casual games? They sure are snazzy! I will make millions! I am such the business whiz!” Nintendo: “We are following the strategy of disruption!” Journalist: (scratches head) “You hear something?” Analyst: “It was just Nintendo speaking. They are saying the same thing.” Journalist: “Yeah! Haha! Same old marketing speak. I am so much smarter about business than Nintendo. In my next interview with Iwata, I’ll give him some business lessons.” Third Parties: (cries) “Oh no! My casual games are not selling!” Journalist: “Obviously, this is because people buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games.” Analyst: “Nintendo needs to assist these third parties in getting their casual games to sell.” Third Parties: “That’s right! They need to do what WE want them to!” Nintendo: “We are following the strategy of disruption!” Journalist: (yawns) “Is that all they say? (becomes excited) Ohhh! Look! A new hardcore game is being made with fresh textures.” (runs off) Analyst: “Obviously, Sony and Microsoft are branching with casual games themselves. Poor Nintendo. Too bad they are out of tricks. I expect Playstation 3 to be surpassing them in a year or two. The market revolves around technology you know.” Third Parties: “My casual games aren’t selling? Why!? I do not understand!” |
