The only new ips that Nintendo has put out have been Wii Sports and its sequel, Wii Fit and its sequel, Wii Play, Wii Music, and now Wii Party all games aimed squarely at the casuals that don't require any depth as far as storytelling go and that really don't seek to expand gaming as an art form in any way the same thing with Flipnote Studio and the Brain games.

So you ignore the entire list of new IPs in order to spout off what is literally nonsense. You are either intentionally wrong (which is to say you are lying) or you're unable to see inside of quote boxes that I make. In either case I'm done; you've faileed to acknowledge points that run contrary to yours and I will not participate in this charade.

I would kindly ask everyone else not to, either; I would prefer not to have to scroll past more of this.


Sorry, but I will take a longer look at your list.

 

Wii... Series -- All Casual.  The bulk of what Nintendo publishes on Wii.

Brain Training -- Casual

Nintendogs -- Casual

Disaster:DoC  -- An attempt at a core game but it was never released in the US. 

Captain Rainbow -- Never released in US 

Nintendo Touch Golf -- Sports / Casual

Big Brain Acadamy -- Casual

Art Acadamy -- Casual

Soma Bringer -- Supposed to be a great game, but never released outside of Japan

Endless Ocean -- Casual 72 and 76 as Metacritic scores

Another Code Metacritic score of 66

Zangeki no Reinglev -- No American release date announced

Flingsmash -- sounds like a casual in its wikipedia entry

Xenoblade -- It was the #1 game in Japan last week.  Maybe it's good.  Still not an internally developed Nintendo game.

Maboshi -- puzzle game.  probably not much of a story there.

Rock and Roll Climber  Metacritic of 72

Bonsai Barber -- it has ratings of 3 and everyone

Eco Shooter 530 -- Metacritic score of 56

Jam with the Band -- Music Game never released in the US

Polarium -- simple puzzle game

Elite Beat Agents -- respected title still the first game in the series which was supposed to be the best one was never released in the US

Electroplankton --Kind of like PS3's Flow

Hotel Dusk --  graphic adventure.  At least it's a core game unlike almost everything else on this list.

Style Boutique -- Casual art game

Flipnote Studio -- Casual art game


I only found a handful of games in that list that in any way push Nintendo out of their casual games for everybody mode.

And someone could come up with a list just as big for PS3 or 360 if you want to count xbla or psn games full of just as many titles with a far greater porportion of them being core games with more substance than simply solving puzzles.
