By looking at gaming’s past we can see Nintendos future: Why they will dominate this gen

[Veknoid_Outcast]

There's a very good chance the Wii U will win the next generation, but I have to take issue with some of the arguments the author of the original article makes.

I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but honestly this hardcore vs. casual is so incredibly counter-productive and misleading.

From the original article: "In the end the casual market would not be enough to continue Nintendo’s Console dominance around the World."

The casual market is the ONLY thing that will allow Nintendo (and any other console for that matter) to dominate around the world. Why did PS1 win? The most "casual" players bought it. Why did PS2 crush everything in site? Again, "casual" video game players adored it. And the same goes for the Wii. By definition, the most popular console is the most "casual."
