The Wii U flopped because that's who they aimed for the NS is back to aiming at a broad audience again.

This is what you said, implying that the Wii U didn't aim at a "broad" or casual audience.

I don't believe the WiiU was catering to the core audience first, i think WiiU tried to please both audiences at the same time but couldn't convince neither and lost big time.

My response.

Wyrdness said:

Nope the promotion of the WiiU says otherwise hence the unprecedented partnership with EA, the focus on games like COD, AC etc... Nintendo full on stopped catering to the new gaming crowd.

Switch is successful in spite of the cores it focuses on the wider market like they did before

Your response, again implying that the WiiU was only focusing on the core crowd and not on casuals.

Wyrdness said:

this is why games like COD, AC, Mass Effect 3 etc... were all heavily pushed in the console's marketing having Wii in the name had little to do with aiming at casuals at all look at the Wii Library and look at the WiiU library the difference in the tastes catered to are as clear as day.

And again.

Wyrdness said:

what actually went wrong with the platform was Nintendo not knowing what they wanted the platform to be, who they were aiming for and not doing their own thing like they normally do. People ended up not caring because they weren't given reason to care the casuals weren't being catered to,

There you go again.

Now you're saying yeah they did target both audiences but not really, my first point still stands... So you are anything but consistent and then you keep acting like all of these arguments and flipflops are what you meant from the beginning. I can keep countering and disproving your claims but what's the point when you continue to go around my responses, continue to flip flop, you keep bringing up the PS3 and now how Reggie knows how to run a company lol. Seriously you're just responding for responding sake and don't want to admit that you're wrong all i can say now is... You have tried.
