As if splitting videogames into “hardcore” and “casual” wasn’t stupid enough, Nintendo has decided to throw another idiotic and ill-defined buzzword into the ring — announcing that Mario Kart Wii is now a “bridge game.” Yay for terms that further widen this nonsensical and mythical divide between “hardcore” and “casual” gamers.
Apparently, Mario Kart Wii is a bridge game because it lets “novices and veterans play and have fun together.” I always thought that most videogames could be enjoyed by novices and veterans, but I guess I was wrong.

Well, we wouldn’t be here reading moronic terms pulled from the ass of some executive in between lines of cocaine.
