If that happens, we all know nintendo has officially killed gaming.

 Oh noes, a casual game sold well! Gamings dead!

 Just no Leo. If Mario, Zelda and Metroid aren't 'core' games then nothing is.


Nintendo barely cares about metroid, and Zelda will always be there only true hardcore game, they dont care about the hardcore market anymore, they care about the casuals.

Nintendo is not what they used to be, Ive said this before, and I am 100% correct, they care for casual gaming more than anything this gen since its were there $$ comes from, every single company (Epic Games) is starting to despise nintendo, for what they know the outcome will be this gen, the end of Hardcore gaming.


So a company that has released Metroid Prime 3, Super Paper Mario, Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Mario Kart (pretty much all of their "Core" games) in 18 months doesn't care about "core" gamers? They have demonstrated a far greater focus on their traditional market than Sony or Microsoft were able to in the same timeframe.

Beyond that do you have any evidence that "every single company is starting to despise nintendo"? Beyond a few whiny executives I haven't seen any evidence that any company (except for Sony and Microsoft) has any ill will towards Nintendo for what they have done with the Nintendo DS or Wii.
