Sigh....... you guys are confusing him even more.

I'll continue.

Yes.There are 2 upmarkets.

One following the HD consoles.
And the other, much smaller upmarket supporting the Wii. i.e. Nintendo fans from previous generations.

Nintendo is not and I repeat is not trying to pull in gamers from the first one(not yet).These people were never going to buy the Wii.These are the people who you see on IGN, Gamespot and Kotaku who deny any merit that the Wii has.
Nintendo's goal is basically to create it's own market comprising of it's loyal followers,rejected gamers and the new gamers.
Nintendo will then upstream many of the new users using the games I mentioned above as well as Mario Sluggers to help upstream these customers.
The result being just like the DS.A huge market comprised of Low,Mid and High Tiered gamers.
Even though the percentage of the upmarket will be lower, the actual number would be higher thus creating an enviroment where third parties have to develop core titles for the Wii or risk the wrath that another competing third party creates a franchise killer on the system that appeals not only to the Wii upmarket but the other as well and then they also start to buy Wiis aswell get sucked in and forget about going back.This is called gamer drift and has killed brands in the past.

There is a thread here asking if Square is afraid of competition and the answer is simple.
If they release XIII on the PS3 there would be a void that cannot be filled with the spinoff since unlike the Gamecube where people would be satisfied,they will now feel themselves cheated.This will allow another party to potentially build a brand killer that is more appealing on a console not available to the HD crowd.If word gets around that it's better than Final Fantasy, disinterest will kick in and their entire line on Final Fantasy games,manga,novels,toys,figurines will be disrupted and the losses might kill them.This is no joke.No amount of remakes will save them.Hence the PS3 bitching from Wada.

This is why people like Epic Games have started making unprovoked attacks on the console.(No Unreal Engine licensees could mean death for them)


So for now Nintendo will not focus on the upmarket.It will continue to focus on bridge games for now and let third party games like ToS2,FFrame4,Conduit and MadWorld to keep the upmarket interested.Like I said they are not trying to scare away the new gamers.This is why they never pushed MP3 since it was too early in the lifecycle(They did do something very interesting with it though and it is becoming more apparent everyday) and just allowed the upmarket to enjoy it themselves.

Games like the new Zelda and FZero will come to front later so we will need to wait on Nintendo.
And don't believe that crap about third parties making casual games to cash in and taking Nintendo's lead and beleiving that casual games sell.This is bullshit.Casual fallacy.
Onimusha12 has said it correctly in his sig.Most big third party companies are feigning support and really wish that the Wii would die and only develop for it to make up for their losses that they never saw coming despite the clear evidence.

Only 2 console third parties even know how to push the Gamecube and the others will never admit it.Shitty 8 year old PC design and they can't push it.A guy from Square said that they always make games with the graphics first and then concept later,the only exception beingthe Wiiware game.That's right no exception.It means they went all out on Crystal Bearers.Look at Crystal Bearers and then look at Rogue Leader and tell me if FFCC even pushes Gamecube graphics.The game got delayed so they can learn to push it.That is what CrystalTools is all about.I've followed them closely all of last year and am 100% sure of this.Companies who can't push Gamecube trying to push the HD consoles.Epic fully knows what is going on and thus making money off poor suckers who need help .Look at the rock textures in MGS4.They look like ass.Konami suck at HD.Heck look at the newer improved Silent Hill screens.......shit.This is the main reason for HD costs being higher than they should have been.They worked on pushing an unconventioanl console(PS2) and learnt nothing that would benefit them in the long term.

Here are other companies that hate Nintendo

Ubisoft:Yes really
EA
Konami
Take2 etc

So like I said Nintendo will only focus on making bridge games for now.All I ask is for you to sit back and see the upmarket games selling more and more as time goes by.And HD supporters stumble.

Malstrom mentioned the irony of "hardcore" gaming sites clinging onto The World Ends with You for the DS.(i.e.the same people who called the DS a shitty kiddy casual handheld).

These tools don't even realize this as yet and continue to insult the Wii.Hypocisy is now inevitable with these newfags.



Prediction:
Disney will make KH3 with Nintendo.Yes,KH3 will be a Disney/Nintendo crossover.

Save the industry,Kill a Hardcore gamer
