So who has been waiting for NX to come out so they can play EA/Take2/Acti/Ubi's offerings? The answer is nobody - AAA publishers have laser-focused the console market around a limited demographic to the point where only 1 platform holder is having sustainable success, and the other is weighing up their very existence as a "console" platform.
Sure, I don't disagree; what I do disagree with is the implication inherent in the statement that its a platform owners 'job' to 'build an audience' for certain types of titles, because that implication is that those titles aren't very good in the first place and the only reason people buy them is due to conditioned marketing.
There might very well be an element of truth to that, I just find it difficult to believe that a good game marketed well cannot sell on specific platforms 'because demographics tho'
