In Topic: Miyamoto not making casual games anymore.

No dude. Sorry. Hes pretty damn specific.

"Fortunately, because of the spread of smart devices, people take games for granted now. It's a good thing for us, because we do not have to worry about making games something that are relevant to general people's daily lives"

 

We no longer need to make games for the people who like mobile style game offerings is pretty complete and concise. No real way around this one.

 

 

Nintendo took a chance, making simplistic games for what they thought was a beginner audience who would then move on to be a more sophisticated audience, that just turned out to be a simplistic audience who never wanted anything more. Now Nintendo, and I quote, 'Doesnt have to worry about' making games for them anymore.

 

Anyone from that audience, who does want more, will move on, on there own. Nintendo no longer has to waste resources making games to bring them into gaming.

Except for the fact that it is a translated comment from the original Japanese, and the media have been known to take whatever meaning they wish from Japanese Nintendo statements without translating them properly. This is actually the very opposite of "Specific".

I will happily use my Samus again after the first time. IF THEY EVER MAKE A NEW PRIME GAME.

I'm buying the characters I like because they look cool. Probably won't use them after the first time for the lolz.

The word he used to describe them was pathetic, actually. And hes being pretty specific and damning.

Hes directly referring to all the time and money, and oppurtunity cost nintendo spent expanding the user base with these casuals, and how they spectacularly failed, en masse, to want to take the next step and try and challenge themselves with something more advanced. So, Nintendo is done with them.

Your second sentence is completely nonsensical and has nothing to do with anything anyone in reality has said.

I think that's what you want him to have meant. But I do not think that is what he meant.

He isn't saying anything here. He is just musing about the shfiting sands of the game industry and everyone is mis-quoting it as 'CAZUAL GAMES SUXKZORZ LOLZ'.
Miyamoto does not consider Mario and Donkey Kong etc to be casual games.
