What happened to Nintendo targeting core gamers? Did that evaporate along with third party support? Or is he simply implying a "for now" condition?

Anyway, I'm fine with Nintendo in their niche, if that's the route they settle into. Nothing wrong with that. Plenty of people would be happy with that direction.

Edit:  It seems Iwata said 2014 will be Nintendo's year for the "highly skilled gamer".  Interesting.  Do they have anything announced besides Bayonetta?

Pretty thin lineup as far as I know. Mario Kart of cource and Donkey Kong. SSB might come out next year, and possibly X.

Weren't SSB & X both targeted for 2014? There might be delays, but I think Nintendo explicity said those two were also supposed to release next year as well.

Pretty sure they are both slated for 2014, but it's Nintendo, sadly you never know.

Yeah that's true unfortunately :/

I'm holding out hope since Brawl came out around the same time during the Wii's lifecycle. As for X, I'm optimistic but expect a delay.
