Frankly, the internet has always been one of the prime gathering points for those who consider themselves 'core' gamers. I mean, make a comparison. Who were the ones who created the first newsgroups and chat rooms back in the 80s and 90s? Moderately rich nerds with a focus on technology. 15 years later, a lot of the majority of people who actively focus on forums or newsgroups are the same kind of people....
What kind of games do you think these people play? Even if they do play Wii games, they're going to focus on the massively hyped and technologically advanced HD and PC games.
