Miyamoto wonders why Pikmin hasn't sold more and why people think the games are difficult (nintendoeverything.com)

Seems like time and time again, Nintendo is always trying to sell games to an audience of people who do not wish to play video games. For a sequel, I figured Nintendo should focus on their core audience of Pikmin fans but it seems like they're always changing things to appeal to people who don't play games while in return alienating the people who want more sophisticated gameplay and challenges.

I didn't play the demo and I went into the game blind today. I'm feeling this so much I want to abandon the game. I hope it'll be fun but the start has been excruciating so far. 10 seconds of tutorial/dialog every 5 seconds of gameplay. WTF?! It's intense, I'm pushing through, but I'm not having fun yet...
