I'll just copy and paste a post I made earlier today...

The point is Nintendo have said they're after the hardcore, they've compared themselvs to the competition and they've said they want/are going to be close or so that far from Orbis/Durango technically whilst also saying they don't compare themselves to other companies or care about "what kind of 'more beef' console Microsoft and Sony produce"etc. and that's why people are pointing out the somewhat contradictory or hypocritical comments made by Nintendo about the Wii U. 

I don't think they are necessarily hypocritical. I think they are trying to please too many crowds.

Agreed, and in doing that they are appearing hypocritical. Though the more I think about it I actually think they're doing a decent job, getting core gamers back after 6 years of Wii is going to be... difficult, they could of handled it so much worse. You know, trying to keep investors and hardcore Ninty fans happy AND trying to attract some of the PS360 crowd.

They, instead of focusing on "Nintendo Fan", or hardcore gamer, or just the casuals, are wanting to calm all of us at one time. Hopefully it'll make more sense when they actually come out with the Wii U.
