Ill say WiiSports crowd if you want me to, or hell even the casual. Your mother, grandmother, aunties, the non traditional gamers account for the vast majority of WIi owners. People bought Wiis to play WiiSports, WiiFit and the like. The numbers are right there. Its funny because you have yet to back up your argument saying that these people DONT make up the majority, you cant because you know they do

Forgive me, I have fallen for your moving of the goalposts. What I meant to say was:

First you need to prove that Wii owners don't care enough to justify development for the console.

...because my previous post was this:

Is it really so hard to say that the lack of quality third party games wasn't the fault of Wii owners?

You sneaked in "the majority" and I fell for it. I am usually not as sloppy as this. But the Wii Sports players are just that, a part of the audience. There were also ten million copies of Super Mario Galaxy and SSBB sold which is more than any PS3 exclusive game. Like you say, the numbers are right there. So let's start this over, this time without you putting in additional qualifiers.

Is it really so hard to say that the lack of quality third party games wasn't the fault of Wii owners?

So you really dont understand the concept of different audiences? My aunt who plays WiiSPorts will never play a COD and my dudebro friends play COD will never play WiiFit and the like and so on.  YOu wanna cherry pick Super Mario games, because you know that the same audience that will buy the CODs and Mario games have NEVER sold that well on any other Ninty system. BUt ignore the SW force unleashed, Need4Speeds, Prince of Persias, Fifas, Maddens, WWEs, Raymans, Spider-mans. Tomb Raider, actual multiplat games. 

But hey if you truly believe that Wii owners are some massive hive mind and they all like the same thing, then go right ahead. But at least show some evidence, no Mario is not evidence he sells well on all Ninty platforms
