Nintendo on the other hand isn't going for the same audience. Once again they're going for the casuals, kids, and Nintendo faithful this holiday. |
I fear I shall have to rather extensively disagree.
While admittedly Hyrule Warriors will, by being attached to Dynasty Warriors franchise, sell to Japan's equivalent to CoD's casual gamers (as well as Nintendo's faithful), and to be sure Captain Toad will do as well with kids as well as with the Wii-U owning Nintendo fans that demanded it be made, your statement seems to ignore that Smash Bros has true hardcore following as well as it's Nintendo faithful and more casual one (more in-line with Halo/GTA casuals than with the CoD/Mario Kart casuals I should think). Furthermore Bayonetta and (although it may well only release in Japan this year) Fatal Frame both have extremely hardcore demographics.
