Nintendo isn't already attracting the core gamers?

1- Why did the Monster Hunter and Fatal Frame franchises move to the Wii then? Are Capcom and Tecmo stupid?

2- Who is buying RE4:Wii, SMG, MP3, RE:UC, SSBB and Zelda?

3- Why are games considered "hardcore" outselling casual games on the Wii if you average them out? (discounting Wii Sports and Wii Play for obvious reasons)

4- Why did the games market actually shrink last year if you count out the Wii? Why are the PS3 and the 360 selling much less hardware than the consoles of the last generation did at the same point in time?

Some 3rd parties are already getting their heads out of their collective asses, more will follow. Nintendo should continue the winning strategy it has so far.

 

Yes the wii is attracting the Core gamers and this is certainly growing on the Wii but is shovelware, as important as it is to snag younger audiences growing faster or slower than the Core side of it thats all i'm wondering.

If the shovelware side is growing faster - do Nintendo need to maybe say to devs "right come on - you've had a couple of years to find out whats work so now we're introducing a lower quality benchmark that we feel needs to be hit" or maybe reintroduce the seal of Quality?

or do you feel just leave it and quality will rise above all of the guff eventually and it'll sort itself out?
