To say u the truth :
these arcade/casual games that u can dl on Xbox360, PS3, or even Wii online are not really selling the console AND are not well know by the casuals.
In fact, I m not even sure "geometry wars can be considered as casual ...
Casual doesn't mean low budget games.
It means "games that appeal to everyone, that generate lot of fun, and that are easy to access".
In general : casual games = family party games (not too complex gameplay + offline multiplayer).
Wii Sport, Mario Party, Wiifit, Singstar, Buzz, Scene it etc ...
So, to win this market, MS need to create something that is not on the Wii (BIG POINT), that is cheap, that is new, that is fun, that is simple.
Indeed, it is very hard to find what they could do to shift people away from the Wii since the Wii is matching so well the casual market.
Time to Work !
