Pachter comments on Nintendo's 'I am not a gamer' ad campaign

GN Version 4.0
“Poor Nintendo. I don’t understand why core gamers care if a nongamer owns a device. I also don’t understand who core gamers think bought 90 million Wiis. It’s pretty obvious that the Wii and the DS penetrated [casual audiences], and it should not offend the core if Nintendo attempts to appeal to casuals with a mainstream ad campaign. There is a lot of content, both hardcore and casual, for every Nintendo device, and always will be.” - Michael Pachter

Interesting to see Pachter weigh in on the topic. Outlets have approached Nintendo for comment on the campaign, but they haven't responded to those requests.
