I think Nintendo has realized the difference between CASUAL and HARDCORE is that casuals aren't loyal.
Yes, because the hardcore were so loyal to Nintendo during the Nintendo 64 and GameCube eras, and never left them to go to the other consoles because they were cheaper and were bought out by flashy FMVs. That's why those consoles sold like hotcakes.
Off topic, but what exactly is a hotcake, anyway?
hotcakes are pancakes :D
Really?
Huh. I never really figured the pancake would be something noted for how it sells.
''SELL LIKE HOT CAKES - "Hot cakes cooked in bear grease or pork lard were popular from the earliest times in America. First made of cornmeal, the griddle cakes or pancakes were of course best when served piping hot and were often sold at church benefits, fairs, and other functions. So popular were they that by the beginning of the 19th century 'to sell like hot cakes' was a familiar expression for anything that sold very quickly effortlessly, and in quantity." From "Encyclopedia of Word and Phrase Origins" by Robert Hendrickson (Facts on File, New York, 1997)''
