DJag <gte950e@prism.gatech.edu> elaborated:

: I really don't think they are. Pokemon proves it.

Just because they are still making kiddy games doesn't mean they are only
making kiddy games. My biggest problem with them was that every game
seemed to be kiddy. A big Nintendo fan once told me they refused to allow
games on their system that they didn't think was appropriate for the
kiddies (or at least ok for the kiddies). They've seemed to back off that
policy (go look at an upcoming game for N64, Eternal Darkness. not a kid
game at all and it looks very promising). 
In fact, I've heard rumors that Square is flirting with them again (Square
went to psx cause they would allow them to have more adult themes).

The root cause of problems is simple overpopulation.  People just aren't
worth very much any more, and they know it.  Makes 'em testy. ...Bev
