I like this strategy a lot.

When you release something that, on day one, already has 'dated' graphics, you don't have to worry about keeping up with the latest graphics cards or poly-counts or anything of the sort. Its just about the game. Like Legos there are countless others, The Game of Life (Milton Bradley, not Conway) has been around since the 1800's. The beauty of this is that you've never completely saturated since kids are coming of age every day and growing into the game.

Arguably dated graphics yes but amazing computational thinking and creative empowerment combined with exciting gameplay.

Nintendo likes that strategy too. But, it's arguably hurting them now.
