I was thinking about that last night.
This doesn't mean jack-shit.
The core gamer will still be uninterested in Nintendo because of their software output and their relationship with third parties. Not to mention the gen-old hardware they offer with their barely-existent online service.
I doubt very much whether things will change (software wise).

I think customers do know how interesting it is to move one step further and challenge yourself. This is why Wii Sports, Wii Fit and Wii Play worked so well. It allowed them to challenge themselves in ways that they were familliar with and cared about and was accessible because you mimiced how it was done in real life. Adding a bunch of buttons and extra analogs does not make your games more challenging. It makes your games less resemble general people's daily lives and thus any chance they might even recognize the challenge invovled because it has become more abstracted.
I don't think that Miyamoto understands why smart devices have spread so rapidly so swiftly. It is percisely because they are relevant to general people's daily lives.
If this is the attitude he has overseen WiiU's design and software with then no wonder it failed. Miyamoto is no better than Ubisoft peddling less well made and less desirable software and blaming consumers that it didn't sell. I guess job well done Miyamoto might never have to worry about making games that are relevant to general people's daily lives ever again. I guess Miyamoto as an artist is just too good for general people's money.
No matter how you interpret those words it's certainly not rosy.
If this was true then what will be that Quality of Life stuff they're planning?

It isn't gaming.

From what I know it will have software similar to Wii Fit and Brain Age, so there's a bit of gaming to it. Maybe not traditional gaming but still Nintendo focusing on the same Wii Fit audience.

Congratulations Nintendo, you have made sure that I will never buy a Wii U. And as long as Miyamoto is Senior Managing Director I will never buy a Nintendo device.

So this is full admitance to being a casual?
This actually makes me hopeful that their gen 9 console will be pretty powerful. I'm glad he said this.
