Only the Blue Ocean purists believe it's a bad idea to drop it at all. I just believe it's a bad idea to drop it now, pre-holiday season. I (and others) would find a later drop more useful.

 

I mean, it's been rather evident that Nintendo hasn't been following the Blue Ocean as gospel. They've been engaging the whole "Monster Hunter 3" thing with as much gusto as any Red Ocean tactician might, and to be fully Blue Ocean, they would have stopped doing a number of things that still bind them to the old market.

Monster Hunter isn't counter to Blue Ocean. They may have money-hatted a core game, but the Blue Ocean Strategy doesn't involve abandoning your core market, just altering your values. It's not specifically BOS, but it doesn't go against it.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
