Honestly I'm starting to hate this hardcore/core/casual cr@p:
IGN: The holiday Wii lineup looks thin for the hardcore crowd. We see this. Gamers see this. What, if anything, is Nintendo planning to address it?
Denise Kaigler: I am really sorry to do this again, but I'm going to have to disagree with you. I think you and your readers would agree that there's no one definition of who is and who is not a "hard-core gamer." And we at Nintendo don't like to lump people into such arbitrary categories anyway. New Super Mario Bros. Wii is a great example of a game that defies categorization. We think people who have been gaming for a long time will find much to enjoy about this title, but it's also fun enough for all of our new Nintendo fans to pick up and play. Trust me, tossing your buddies into pits is hysterical, regardless of how long you've been gaming. And did you forget about Metroid Prime Trilogy? I think that's one collector's item that every longtime video game fan will want to play.
Many of your readers often ask about the "core" games published by other companies for Wii, and I think we have enough titles coming to satisfy even that crowd. Before the end of the year, we'll see Dead Space Extraction from EA, Muramasa: The Demon Blade from Ignition Entertainment, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles from Capcom, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories from Konami and Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars from Capcom. And those are just a few of the great titles coming from our licensees. That should be more than enough to keep the core gamer crowd busy until Capcom releases Monster Hunter Tri in early 2010. Not to mention our great WiiWare lineup, with games like Cave Story from Nicalis and Super Meat Boy from Team Meat.

Well at least she talks about a good ammount of 3d Party titles and thanks Denise to recognize Nicalis more people in the industry should check independent developers.
