I really think Miyamoto doesn't distinguish between the two because it really never mattered to him. Miyamoto makes games for people and that's what he's always done. I don't think he's ever made a game to fit a certain stereotype but just make games that he wants to play. So when he's asked questions like this in reality it doesn't matter to him but for PR he has to say it a certain way. Is the game a hardcore game? Absolutely not considering its a pick up and play title. But neither is games like Halo or Gran Turismo so it's not like its in bad company which are also pick up and play titles.
