That's not his argument at all. No need to turn this into a "Nintendo is abandoning the core gamer". He is talking about Nintendo ruining the industry by not striving for his own "cultured" artistic ideals. You can't honestly tell me Super Mario 64 would qualify under that, can you?
If he honestly responds and agrees that Super Mario Sunshine has the "artistic merit" he was speaking of then an argument could be made that this is moreso about the Wii's shift from Nintendo's older style.
