Anyone here thinks that Nintendo FUD is contradictory? First thing, MS said the Wii had no lasting appeal and could not deliver experiences like Madden (I would be very happy if this was true) or Halo. Their point is that Wii owners would get bored fast and that real gamers would look for a better experience. In this scenario Nintendo focus on casual would lead them to their doom.
Now MS is saying that there is no new gamers, it is most ex GC owners. If this was real not only sales would be slower, but focus would be on the core games. GC players are some of the most hardcore gamers I know.
Now I ask which one will make Wii fail, the focus on new gamers or the hardcore GC owners?
