Look at the foolish Bayonetta 2 fans, many of them are probably the same people that knocked Nintendo for not releasing games for them, and catering to the "casuals." So Nintendo publishes a game that caters directly to them, and what do they do? Whine and curse out Nintendo for some stupid reason, (despite the fact that the game would not exist without Nintendo). I will never understand the hardcore..


bolded the keyword.  they publish a game, as in one, uno, less than two. 

hardcore gamers buy a lot of games, like 15 or more a year.  not one a generation, not even just one a year.  so nintendo,.. not really catering to the core.  not when they miss out on GTA, bioshock, crysis 3, dark souls 2, dead space 3, watch dogs, metal gear, south park, and all those other games with a red X just this year...  oh, and let's not forget nintendo leaving out damn obvious OS features like cross game chat and a unified trophy system.

you're being foolish nintendo fan if you think nintedo has put any substance into courting the core.  so yeah, i agree with you... nintendo should go back to courting the casual exclusively.  i think it will still put them on the road to obsurity as that audience is even harder to please and just as likey to dimiss nintendo ...but at least nintendo has a chance.  but you are absolutly right about nintendo lacking the talent to make games or a system the core wants.

but don't try pull any this whiny "oh its everyone else's fault" BS.    the core are very demanding customers and nintendo's "let's the to bare minimum to get by" approach will not work.
