Also, didn't Kimishima say a while back that they are moving away from the Wii and WiiU with the NX? Wouldn't appealing to casuals contradict that?

Not really, there's nuance in the gaming market so we really can't distill things to casual (Wii brand) vs core (PS3/360).  DS represents a system that did appeal to both. When they referenced moving away from the Wii, I think they meant in terms of marketing, branding and maybe sales tactic (i.e selling a system based on a controller)

Selling a system based on the controller didn't really help the WiiU, so I think that's definitely the case. I don't think the NX's gimmick is going to be controller based.
