Rolstoppable is right. MS are not in video games for gaming. They want to protect Windows as the #1 home platform and win a share of the emerging digital download market. Unlike the iPod (countered with the Zune) or the PS2 (countered with the XBox) the Nintendo DS is not a threat to Windows, because Nintendo see themselves as a game company exclusively.
Hardcore gaming is a bubble economy blown up by Microsoft's $7 $6 billion losses.
