@RolStoppable : Iwata already stated that Nintendo doesn't make all the types of games and they prefer that 3rd parties take care of filling the blanks in their consoles' libraries. And actually, around 50% of games published by Nintendo are made by 3rd parties. For example Hudson should be very happy with Mario Party 8 sales.

When complaining about a game's sales on Wii, one must think "how much would this game have sold on another console ?". I don't think that games like No More Heroes, Zack & Wiki, Opoona, Dewy, Manhunt 2, EA Playground, Boogie, Soul Calibur Legends, Nights... would have sold more on any other system. But since it's on the Wii, they're allowed to complain about Wii's demography that doesn't like their games.

When games bombed on the PSone, I don't remember about people saying "that's because of new gamers, they're not hardcore enough, I should have made my game for the N64".
