Nintendo Wii: the ultimate hardcore console?

GamePro explains why the Big N isn't just for kids.

"Recently, there's been a lot of press about SEGA and EA's disappointment with the sales of 'adult' Wii games, such as Mad World and Dead Space: Extraction. While games like Wii Sports Resort seem to sell by the truckload, many 'mature-themed' titles struggle to break even.

Unfortunately this has lead to various games journalists and their readers making a very dubious leap of logic. In short, they're claiming that Nintendo is just for kids. According to certain elements of the gaming community, the poor sales of the above games is proof positive that Nintendo isn't supporting the adult game market and is ignoring hardcore gamers that invest in a Wii."
