Look at Miyazaki, he creates anime a broad audience can enjoy, but the man is old, old...
There are always minorities for everything, and Miyazaki is the minority of minorities.

But prime-time Gundam have always been targeted to majorities, and clearly...the otakus are one of them, but they're not enough to constitute as a full-formed majority.

On the other side of discussions, just because the targer audience of 00 is not adults doesn't mean jack. SEED wasn't adult-targeted to begin with, and it had its share of fans, lots of em' just as there are bashers of SEED before it even aired...like right now with 00. Likewise for every other show.
