JWeinCom said: I'm not sure why you're be using a definition of casual gamer that seemingly excludes children who haven't played games that much, excludes the kinds of people who bought the DS and Wii and made games like NSMB successful, people who are buying their first system, people who primarily play on phones, and the kinds of people who have for a while made up Nintendo's fanbase that aren't particularly into shooters or sports games (which have never sold well on Nintendo consoles, even the ones that succeeded with casual gamers). Regardless, if we agree that simpler games sell better to casual gamers, then how we define that term is really not going to influence things. All that would really matter is which game is simpler. My offer stands to throw this to the community, although you understandably don't seem keen on doing so. |
I'm using the definition of casual that's been around since the NES, new gamers aren't casual gamers as they've only entered into the market, kids can also be casual gamers as well if they've been gaming long enough so I don't get how that definition excludes them.
You can make the thread all you want to see whether people view 3D Mario or Splatoon as more casual friendly I never said you couldn't I just don't see the worth in a bet on it as it can go either way.
