So the only age group Nintendo didn't appeal to with the DS was just the age group that plays Monster Hunter?

Even if that is true, which I don't think it is, Monster Hunter is only relevant in Japan. The lack of appeal to the certain age groups you refer to would still exist in the West.

EDIT: Also, Sony seem pretty intent on battling for that market in Japan. God Eater 2 and Freedom Wars should establish a userbase which Capcom wouldn't likely ignore.

@bold. Yeah :) The niche anime games or dudebro games aren't necessary to this strat.

Though the lack of appeal would exist in the West, it would only be a matter of time before the 3DS games successful in japan trickled to western shores.
