I showed some examples of why I think that is true, based on the fact that for traditional gamers, there is really only mario and platformers.

1 word... No. Rol, care to kick in, I'm not  a list-jutsu expert. :P Plus, didn't you bring up LKS (sim-rpg) and Muramasa:demon blade (action-rpg)? How could you say there is only mario and platforms, that would logically mean you yourself aren't a true gamer, and that's not true. I rather think your presumption is wrong... ;P

I'm having trouble following your argument. Because two games exist, then suddenly there is plenty enough to sustain multiple demographics?

Basically, I can see your argument IF you can give me a traditionally core genre besides platforming that is readily available in abundance on the wii.

Secondly, this is only one line of my argument, which in total was saying that based on the limited number of unique franchise titles available for platforming, once someone has beaten something like Donkey Kong, there is no 2nd donkey kong, they MUST play a different franchise, thereby relegating a core platform buyer to buying every franchise platformer. This results in the very similar sales of the nintendo franchise platformers beginning to who the actual traditional core userbase.
