You know, it is important to work on improving in areas like Artificial Intelligence and physics, and it's an area where I am slightly disappointed with Wii's lack of power. That said, all of these improvements are geared towards pleasing the existing hardcore gamer. These may result in better games but they don't do anything to expand the market.

Having opponents as smart and unpredictable as humans doesn't make video games more interesting to people who don't already play them. Heck, it's debatable that it makes the game better at all! Super Mario Bros. 3 is still one of the greatest games of all time, and the A.I. is almost non-existant.

So while you're right that there is room for improvement along traditional lines...it doesn't change the fact that change is needed in different areas to enlarge the market for video games.


Unrelated. Almost the entirety of your post is unrelated to anything in mine. My post was talking about 100% pure vertical innovation; not horizontal. The two are not mutually exclusive you know.
