The majority of gamers are in their 30's, "core gamers" and that's what MS/sony target. I think it's a mistake for nintendo to pander to mainly casuals (non-gamers) because they are very fickle and ignorant about gaming. The wii was popular with 'em and the wii u wasn't. A good bit of casuals didn't even understand that the wii u was a entirely new nintendo console and not an accessory. Nintendo would be better off building it's fanbase by treating core gamers seriously in the long run. Nintendo can make games for core gamers and nintendo fans. Why can't it have a diverse game library?

Like I said, dividing everything into "core" & "casual" is illogical as those don't describe demographics. The audience of kids, females and families would buy and play games on consoles if they had a sufficient amount of games targeted towards them, instead it's primarily online shooters, open-world action & sports/racing sims, games that primarily appeal to teen/adult males.

So you think it would be worth it for a dev to build games for consoles that target those demographics? 
Maybe indie or low budget games might be.
