It's a strategy based on value.
I never said Nintendo lost the console wars. They're playing their own game here folks. I'm spectating that game.

Of course the "Blue Ocean Strategy" is nothing but a flawed theory made up of several preexisting economic principles wrapped in a PR bullshit and a marketable story. But hey, if Nintendo references it, it must be golden! It surely wasn't just a credibility move by Reggie/Iwata at a time when the "strategy" was immensely popular. And the fact that they've done things "counter to the blue ocean strategy" is surely not because the strategy doesn't actually help anyone with running a company. Surely!
