I disagree with the Wii not appealing to your definition of "hardcore gamer". Many people on this forum who fit the definition own and promote/defend the Wii, including me.

Plus, categorisation is pretty useless when it comes to predicting future trends. I wouldn't split it at all, and wouldn't try to "justify" previous and current sales by audience types. It never worked that way - look at Dreamcast. While appealing to "everyone", it failed for economic, marketing, availability, competition, third-party support and poor quality of mascot games, etc.

 The Dreamcast's biggest failure was being tied to Sega, with all the failed upgrades and console flops over the years, who wanted to take a chance on them?



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.
