Nintendo also has other franchises that don't rely on game violence, like Harvest Moon, Brain Age, and the gimmicky "Wii ______" games. He's not saying game makers should avoid violent games, just that there should be more diversity in play experiences. Nothing wrong with calls for innovation and non-traditional designs.
