Not really the fact that this new demographic only buys a handful of titles in very few genres has to be considered. If Nintendo had really expanded the market, then you would be seeing their mature games like No More Heroes or Madworld selling as many copies as Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit, and that isn't happening. |

Oh really? Why do you think they baught the Wii, to play those few games you said. Doesn't mean the Wii would have sold any less, considering that is what they want to play anyway.

They expanded the market to casual, the hardcore crowd has already reached it's peak. Madworld and No More Heroes are not very good examples. Considering they are aimed at a nichie market and Madworld is also blakc and white and a VERY short game. In other words no value for money.
Look at CoD:WaW a shit crappy gimped port with missing features (but a well known established franchise) has sold over 1 million.
RE4: a bloody port and 4th version of the game sold 1.6million roughly. again a well known franchise and also a great game.
So yer if people bring out their well known franchises that arent gimped or B grade quality, they can sell on Wii more then the two examples I have given above.
Not to mention the traditional gamer (ie the hardcore) have basically ignored the Wii and won't accpet change becuase they are afraid. There is nothing wrong with motion controls.
People like this will NOT be able to survive in the work force long if change comes around in their office because they will be to closed minded to change.
