Isn't doing that, by definition, become exactly what he was trying to criticize? When you have to write countless paragraphs of pretentious text, all the while claiming that you are the one in the know, that the rest of the so-called ''analysts'' are idiots, then you are behaving as egotistically as the companies that ''do not take the consumer into account''.

In other words, if you need a tutorial (i.e. reading his previous essays) to properly understand what he's trying to prove, then his latest article is, as DMeister calls it, a contradiction.

Yeah he acts like an egocentric one. The problem with your example is that his articles aren't for everyone, they are for people like me and you maybe that is they are for vg sales freaks.

I don't think that arguments like disruption or theory of cycles are interesting for everyone and those type of arguments usually need to be explained in details. The difference with an accademic type of writing is that the style he use is a freaky one, a theatrical one  may I say.

The problem I have with his recent articles is that I read Malstrom works from 2006 onward so sometime they feel unispired, not fresh like Wiikly ones.

The huge challenge Sean has now is that with the past articles he exposed the plan illustrated by Nintendo ( I don't think Sean is smart, I think that he was one of the few that heard carefully what Nintendo said "before the revolution" and analyzed it in detail ) while now he is trying to predict the outcome of the industry in the future.
