You might bear in mind Nintendo’s well-known Blue Ocean Strategy for the Wii which was all about opening up the participant base again in 2006. Here’s extra details about this together with a hyperlink.
“Nintendo languished in last place during the console wars of the early 2000s, with game industry analysts suggesting that the Kyoto-based firm exit the gaming console market altogether. Instead, Nintendo used Blue Ocean Strategy to redefine market boundaries, creating the best-selling video-game console ever, the Nintendo Wii. Targeting noncustomers, the Wii outsold Sony’s PlayStation and Microsoft’s Xbox combined, until the market was disrupted by smartphones and tablets. Mobile technology targeted the same noncustomers, offering easy-to-understand games and controls, and Wii sales suffered. Nintendo initially responded by introducing a tablet-like console, the Wii U, a poor copy of the tablet experience that was a dismal failure. Stepping back, Nintendo again used Blue Ocean Strategy to “value innovate” with the Nintendo Switch, the one console to outpace the Wii in gross sales, and by transferring into adjoining markets, working with companies through which it held a minority stake to launch the wildly common Pokémon Go and different cellular video games”
