This thread is sooooo interesting. New gen new story. While the Vita Numbers are bad I predict that it will follow the trend of the PSP and PS3. It will sell better over time. I also expect 3DS numbers to decline unless it sees more expanded audience games. The redesign that I predict that is on the way will help it sell higher. Anyway this thread will be fun to look at four years from now I'm bookmarking it. |
Mario kart and Mario are games that sell in the 20 mil range, how is that not expanded audience.

Expanded audience=New kinds of people who never played video games. Mario games cannot be expanded market games since they aren't pulling a whole new audience. They are more core games since they are only expanding a previous audience. Same goes with Nintendogs and Brain Age.
If a game last generation is a expanded audience game. Next Gen it will be a core game.

I understand and your point is well takin but the ds and wii Mario games had sales explosions such as hardly has been reached before. But maybe as you say expanded audience games like wii sports and the like were the reason.
