Ask yourself "If new hardcore games were coming out on the N64, would I buy myself a new N64 to play them?" Now use the GameCube in place of the N64. Now the Wii. Now the PS360. Disregard price, when asking yourself that question.
Do you think hardcore gamers are going to tend toward owning a weaker system or a stronger one? Toward playing classics from their youth, or new games?
The Wii has a demographics slant toward casual titles, and its in no way a minor one. The "if you build it, they will come" argument is well-wishing, when the Wii doesn't even own 50%, let alone 50% of the demographics for many genres.
What do you think would happen if a casual title like Carnival Games came out on the PS360? Would it sell millions? If the publishers build it, will they come?
