Ahh nintendo went a whole different route. Look at his successor. Satoru Iwata took the company in a very kid friendly direction. He was going on the success of Kirby. Square and Enix were telling more mature stories. They were growing with their audience. Enix was strongly linked to shonen jump. They had a pulse on that shit. All of Nintendos competitors marketed their products as oh Nintendo is for kids. I think it was inevitable that mature story telling found its way into consoles targeted at more mature audiences. Microsoft didn't launch XBOX with a mario clone. They launched with space DOOM. We're in a weird era now though. Nintendo doesn't have an identity. They're just the mobile console with zelda. That said... Sony is just the 500 dollar FF7 machine now.
