Me, being a Nintendo fan, am pretty disappointed in Nintendo. Recently (or not so recently), they've gone so far as to announce that they will no longer be targeting hardcore gamers; only casual gamers. Translation: "fuck our loyal fans, more money can be made elsewhere".

So, what does this mean? Say goodbye to the Nintendo you knew and loved (or hated, which you will find an even greater excuse to hate now). When they say casual gamers, they really mean little girls and old people. Don't believe me? Let me provide you with a list of recent (E)/(U) DS games that I find particularly geared towards children, girls, and the elderly (and in no way towards hardcore gamers):

3186: Let's Play Firemen
3185: My Pet Puppy
3184: My Pet Pony
3180: Let's Play Shops
3179: My Pet School
3175: Build-A-Bear Workshop (Oh, come on)
3168: Junior Brain Trainer (The need for this game is unrelated to the fact that it's a kid game)
3164: My Dogs Paradise
3159: Dancing With the Stars We Dance
3157: Petz Rescue Ocean Patrol (The z in "Petz" doesn't make it sound trendy, it just sounds immature)
3155: Totally Spies 4
3154: Imagine Movie Star
3141: Neopets Puzzle Adventure
3132: Babysitting Mania (Seriously? Babysitting?)
3131: Tamagotchi Connection Corner Shop 3
3125: Imagine Gymnast
3111: Princess on Ice

Keep in mind I'm also basing my opinion on just how ridiculously baby/girl-targeting alot of these games are, using stereotypes and popular titles. These games are no doubt half-baked gimmick driven piles of shit, but they will still sell, seeing as how casual gamers can't tell the difference between a good game or a bad game unless it's blatantly obvious.

It's a sad time for Nintendo. Any doubt that they weren't a kid-company are completely destroyed, and I have little respect for them as a company due to their greedy decision to opt for casual cash instead of their diehard fans. Out of every 100 games, the majority is close between Japanese exclusive, or a little girl game. Feel free to try and convince me otherwise, because I honestly want someone to.
