That's 8 party/mini-game titles. 2 multi-player casual friendly Mario platformers. A Zelda remake. Two kinda mid-tier Nintendo core releases in Pikmin 3 and Wonderful 101. A kids licensed game in LEGO City. And one port of a "hardcore" PS3/360 game, Ninja Gaiden, which had mediocre reviews.
Anyone who can say with a straight face this is a product aimed at "hardcore" gamers when literally 2/3rds of the games are casual fare is out of their mind. A port of the shitty Ninja Gaiden 3 is the only thing expressly not for casuals or kids.
It was for casuals. The casuals just didn't come back, and there were signs they were already leaving later in the Wii's lifecycle.
They didn't support the Kinect either on XBox One.

you are a genius
When I used to visit this site I thought you just had it out for Nintendo. Since I've come back your insights have been invaluable as a fan. Thank you.
