When trying to target a new group there's always the risk of losing the old group. Clearly MS are looking at Wii (plus PS2 previously) and want to get there and are willing to take the risk.

IMHO they have never really understood that you need a relatively low cost console that is easy for parents to purchase and hand to the kids. I suspect they are locked into needed to provide high end console to support demanding HC audience who want ever higher res versions of shooters, etc. and this will make it difficult for them.

 

 

The ps2 was as hardcore as they come, its big sellers were all hardcore games (GT, GTA, god of war, MGS e.t.c).

Yeah, but it sold over 100 Million consoles by appealing to everyone and being the console you just bought and stuck in your kids room.  Now the Wii has that place while xbox/360 has never had a sniff of that place.
