It's no surprise.
Sony and MS focus too much on power, GFX, and 'extras' irrelevant to gaming.
Nintendo is focusing too much on gimmicks and casual gamer (meaning shovelware).
None of the big three (or any major 3rd party for that matter) is focusing on actually making solid games for gamers. And before long, their constant sidestepping is going to cause the entire industry to become stagnant.
I don't even buy a lot of games anymore because its either 'GRAPHICS! GRAPHICS! GRAPHICS!' or 'GIMMICKS! GIMMICKS! GIMMICKS!' and they aren't sticking to the basics and building upon it. Nowadays I either flash cart, rom, or buy/play older titles. It seems that somewhere in this generation of consoles, they forgot what video games is about.
If they really want sales to go back up, they need to cater to both types of gamers. |
