they moved in a direction that makes "core gamers" feel irrationally isolated.

they pretty much continued the boom that sony started (started and grew a bit). Make games fun for anyone to just have fun. nintendo used to rely on smart and easy game mechanics, but now they changed their philosophy to making games fun and fun alone.

This drew a lot of funding away from what the "core gamers" wanted. The ironic thing is that they have nothing to fear. They will always be a coveted market. They buy so many games its hard to ignore them at the very least. If developers start shifting their games to simple fun like nintendo has done, then developers who are left over will reap the benefits of a hungry market and thus draw devs back.

there might be a few less "core games" per year than before, but "core gamers" will be get their games.
