So Nintendo is a niche dev now? What have Trace Memory R, Takt of Magic, S&P2, Punch-Out, Captain Rainbow, Disaster DoC, Endless Ocean 2 all got in common? All sold really bad. Why? Because they were all stealth releases. Of course unless you know say that all of those were niche, which would mean than Bayonetta should have bombed this week, but it didn't even though it was really niche, because the game was hyped and advertised.

Just wake me up when Nintendo will actually advertise and generate interest in games that aren't either casual or part of their big franchises.
