@ixaarii, Yes it is pessimistic, depending on how you look at it. To me I see it as optimistic if the casuals stop playing, that way more games I like will be made instead of so much shovelware. And it's not about Wii, it's every system. Wii merely did it the best for casuals first. Apple is doing the same.
Look at Crimson Gem Saga for instance, it is niche and a great core game, it is not even being carried by almost every retailer, while lowest common denominator fluff is. The only places I've seen the game available since launch are Amazon & Newegg with 2-3 weeks shipping & sold out respectively.
