Although the Wii provided a considerable amount of hardcore experiences, there’s no denying that Nintendo was looking to appeal to more casual gamers. That’s why we saw experiences such as Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, Wii Party, and Wii Fit.
For Wii U, however, it seems that Nintendo understands the need to provide more of a hardcore experience. Speaking with EGM, Katsuya Eguchi said that for Wii, “core gamers felt that it wasn’t for them”. This time around, Nintendo would like “to bring core gamers back and create new gamers as well.”
“With the Wii, we wanted to bring in as many new users as possible and have them experience the games, but as a consequence, I think a lot of the core gamers felt that it wasn’t for them, and they started moving away. With the new console and the new controller, we definitely want to bring core gamers back and create new gamers as well. So, with the Wii U, we hope that the players who were introduced to gaming for the first time on the Wii will step it up and become core gamers themselves.”
Zelda: Ocarina of time 3D (3DS)
Star Fox 64 3D (3DS)
Kid Icarus Uprising (3DS)
Rhythm Heaven (Wii)
This is pretty typical of Nintendo. They generally attend this event to give Japanese gamers a chance to play their upcoming games. This year, though, they’re actually brought some product that hasn’t been released yet. Many fans in Japan will be able to play Star Fox 64 3D, Uprising, and Rhythm Heaven for the first time.
