If Nintendo claims 70% of their customers are Core gamers, then claiming there is no mainstream desire for an extended storage solution is a direct contradiction.

Of course, the claim that there is no mainstream desire for that storage comes from the mouth of one exec from Nintendo of Europe, who maybe didn't get the memo in regards to the upcoming storage solution, assuming it's in the works.

Then again, Nintendo claiming 70% of their customers are core gamers is based upon what standard? Wii owners who own more than Wii Sports and Wii Play?

Most of their advertising is directed at family gaming and distinctly non-core gaming demographics, and for good reason: that's where the sales and growth are at.
