Nintendo Hasn’t Forgotten the Hardcore

By Brian Ashcraft on October 31, 2007 at 3:15 PM

Sure, Super Mario Galaxy is coming. But even so, gamers feel slighted. Casual players make up a big portion of Nintendo’s market, so the company’s interests have shifted. Right? Nintendo UK general manager David Yarnton says:

It’s important to know that we’re not ignoring the hardcore gamer. They’re still very important to us… And Christmas alone we have already catered on the Wii with Metroid Prime 3 and Super Mario Galaxy, and on DS with the Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.

Nintendo hasn’t forgotten you, Joe Q. Gamer. It just wants patience, because good things come to those who wait. Well, eventually. We hope.
