Nintendo pretty much just has the hardcore Nintendo loyalists and younger gamers... Microsoft I think attracted a bunch of PC gamers as well as people who had had other consoles before... and they market themselves as for 'hardcore' gamers and not softcore like Sony. But yes, a lot of their games would definitely appeal to the mass market... but then again, so would plenty of Nintendo games if they were as well marketed as Microsoft's were!
