Well actually with the Mario titles (MK7, SM3DLand) and the OoT release and StarFox64 alongside Paper Mario as well as the confirmation of a new Zelda and Smash Bros title. Add in Kid Icarus and such and the hardcore line-up isn't actually half bad. However as some users have pointed out including Rol and they have a point DS was largely a success due to their casual software like Brain Age. Nintendo can't afford to ignore a huge market demographic. Hopefully Nintendo won't choose either casual or hardcore and create games that satisfy everyone so maybe release a couple so called hardcore titles alongside a couple so called casual titles rather then releasing mainly casual or mainly hardcore titles in the future. Nintendo just needs to mix it up a bit.

Reggie is a marketing genius and if he is actually behind this move it is a smart one. The DS sold so well largely to titles like Brain Age and neglecting all those DS owners will not allow 3DS to sell nearly as well. Nintendo needs to make sure all of their former DS owners have software they want so that they feel compelled to upgrade. Nintendo is going after market share this generation at all costs they want to maintain their dominant share of the market both handheld and home. To do so they need to appeal to the casual market the 50+ year olds, the girls and women. They need to appeal to everyone they did with the DS or they will fail!
