Worth a read: Birdmen and the Casual Fallacy

Sean Malstrom has written a fantastic article titled Birdmen and the Casual Fallacy which is definitely worth a read if you think all the wii casual shovelware and Ps3mote/360mote is anything new. 

Nintendo is flying high. Rather than examine the nature of this flight, the birdmen are mesmerized by the feathers. The analysts and executives do not see the concepts of disruption and don’t even understand the Blue Ocean principles (though they think they do). The feathers they see on Nintendo’s ascent are casual games. Therefore, they surmise, if they make casual games then they will be flying high with Nintendo.
