I read this and have a hard time agreeing with the consumers rejection of new/innovative ideas. Yes, the industry is currently littered with sequals hogging the sales spotlight, but I then realize that Assassin's Creed and the Wii are extremely popular.
I think there is a confusion in the minds of many people, consumers tend to not by:
1: Crap - just because a game has a great idea/concept, delivery will decide on quality
2: Games they don't like - Western society is adverse to specific types of art style, hence why games like NMH, Okami, etc. have limited successes in comparison to similar playstyle games with a more Westernized art style.
