What i see is that pre wii nintendo consoles were used by the children/teenagers of the house, just like any system. when the wii came, the tradicional audience kept using it and playng the tradicional "core" games, the difference is that the adults and even elderly of the house used the system too.
there were the new kind of simpler "casual" games starting with the wii.
were they more succesfull than "core" titles on the wii? definetely
were the core titles less sucessfull than previous nintendo consoles? NO
nintendo core franchises sold more than ever on the wii and a huge number of core third party titles sold at least 500k. if anything, the core audience was raised on the wii.
