I'm tired of seeing this argument. T:DS didn't suffer from "consolitis;" it suffered from spotty design, and it would have whether it was released on Xbox or PC or whatever. The Xbox could have handled a game as complex as Thief 2, and it was the designers who decided to dumb down the game, not the hardware limitations that forced them to.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
