The list of hardcore games is totally up to opinion (and ignores third parties entirely- who actually put out some great stuff on GC and N64).

This. Considering Mario/Kirby/DK as core games is questionable imho. True, those games do have a core appeal but a lot of their sales come from casuals a well. And besides, how does he explain WiiU's slow start? At 30K a week it's obvious that a lot of people were driven off by Wii's poor last years, and software sales clearly suggest that those people are mostly core gamers.
