| Asriel said: The reasoning behind this is simple-Wii appeals more to 'casuals', who by definition, will not spend as much time or money involved in gaming when compared to the core, who so far, have been the main market of the HD console.(that's the article's reasoning, not my own reasoning, but I do closely agree with it) Nintendo will announce big core titles to combat this, thusly driving profit, software sales and maintaing high hardware sales. That's what I think, anyhoo. |
Where did you get this myth from? Look at the sales of the casual games on the Wii. They have legs and have been selling like crazy. No study has been done to conclude that casual do not by games. The Sims by EA is a causal game that has sold more than 30 million units. Casuals do buy games. If they did not then there would not be a market for them on the PC or on consoles.
If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba
